De Bruyne took part in light training on the King Abdullah Sports City pitch on Tuesday, but there was no sign of Haaland or Doku.
Haaland is not risked against the Japanese side, with a potentially tougher test in the final to come. Instead, Jack Grealish and potential false nine Phil Foden spearhead the attack alongside Bernardo Silva, with Julian Alvarez only named as a substitute.
Matheus Nunes is fit again and starts in midfield, with Kalvin Phillips desperate for chances despite a likely transfer exit in January.
He has to make do with a familiar place on the bench tonight though as Pep Guardiola goes with a very strong City team in Jeddah.
