Manchester City team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Arsenal

Manchester City will be looking to go top of the Premier League table on Wednesday when they lock horns with Arsenal in a mouth-watering clash at the Emirates Stadium.

Pep Guardiola's side returned to winning ways on Sunday as they edged out Aston Villa 3-1 on home turf, with Rodri, Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez scoring first-half goals before Ollie Watkins pulled one back in the 61st minute.

The Citizens have now won four of their last five matches across all competitions, including a 1-0 home victory over Mikel Arteta's men when the sides met in round four of the FA Cup on January 27.

Manchester City and Arsenal now renew acquaintances for the second time in three weeks, with just three points separating the sides at the top of the Premier League standings.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Arsenal, who are without a win in three consecutive outings across all competitions.
