Manchester City will have to field several youngsters in their League Cup clash against third-tier Wycombe Wanderers as a number of players are suffering from injuries, said manager Pep Guardiola.

"I don't have any alternative (against Wycombe)... we are going to play a few young players," Guardiola told the club's website ahead of the third-round game at the Etihad tomorrow morning (Singapore time).
