Man City head into the clash on the back of a 1-1 draw with Everton at the start of the week, but this does not appear to have dampened Guardiola's spirits.
He is laughing and joking with the team as he boards the plane with a small hand luggage suitcase.
Benjamin Mendy has been named in Guardiola's squad for the first time following his £49million summer switch.
The Frenchman has already hit the headlines in Manchester City after he left his Ferrari in a taxi rank, whilst he went to pick up a Nando's.

The Citizens will be hoping for a straight-forward win on Saturday against a Bournemouth side that is yet to score in the new campaign.
