(Reuters) - Manchester City could be without attacking midfielder David Silva but strikers Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus are set to feature when they host local rivals Manchester United in Thursday's Premier League clash, manager Pep Guardiola has said.

Silva was substituted off after 23 minutes following a heavy tackle from Arsenal defender Gabriel Paulista in City's 2-1 FA Cup semi-final defeat last weekend. Aguero also left the field during extra time but will be available for selection.
