Man City injury, suspension news and return dates for Leicester City clash: Haaland, Rodri, Bobb latest

Looking to claim three more points as they strive for a spot in the Champions League, Manchester City will host Leicester City at the Etihad on Wednesday night in the Premier League.

The Citizens returned from the international break with a trip to the South Coast on Sunday, when goals from Erling Haaland and Omar Marmoush secured an FA Cup quarter-final success over Bournemouth.

After booking a semi-final battle against Nottingham Forest at Wembley at the end of April, Pep Guardiola's men must now turn their attentions to the visit of a relegation-threatened Leicester outfit in the top flight.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with the faltering Foxes.
