Premier
Earns assist
Nunes assisted once to go with one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 victory over Leeds United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 55th minute.
ANALYSIS
Nunes would be the first full-back of the match for City to earn a goal contribution Saturday as both helped the team to goals, with the Portuguese player finding Phil Foden in the first minute. This is Nunes' second assist in his past three league appearances, now with two in 11 appearances (nine starts). He also has one goal on the season, hoping to top the seven he earned in 26 appearances (19 starts) last campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
To switch positions permanently?
Matheus Nunes might change positions on a permanent basis, according to Mark Ogden of ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Nunes has spent most of his career playing as a midfielder, but he's been deployed as a right-back by Pep Guardiola. The Spanish manager recently stated that Nunes "is not clever enough" to play the midfield role he wants at City, so it seems the former Wolves star will switch to the right side of the defense for good, or at least until Guardiola remains with the club.
