Foster for Rodriguez is one of two changes Kompany has made to his side, with Charlie Taylor also coming in for Hannes Delcroix, who drops down to the bench.
Taylor returns after serving a one-match man against Everton after accumulating five yellow cards.
Elsewhere, Jack Cork, Aaron Ramsey, Johann Gudmundsson and Luca Koleosho all remain sidelined.
