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

Man City injury, suspension list vs. Leicester City

Manchester City will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League when they travel to the King Power Stadium on Saturday to take on Leicester City.

The Citizens recorded a 3-1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion in the league last weekend, and a total of 26 points from 11 matches has left them in second spot in the table, two points behind leaders Arsenal.

The Citizens will enter this match off the back of a 0-0 draw with Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, which saw them secure first position in Group G.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Leicester, who recorded a 4-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out.


Kalvin Phillips

Status: Out Type of injury: Shoulder Possible return date: Unknown

Summer arrival Kalvin Phillips remains unavailable for selection following a shoulder operation, but the central midfielder is making strong progress in his recovery.


Kyle Walker

Status: Out Type of injury: Groin Possible return date: Unknown

Kyle Walker underwent groin surgery earlier this month due to an issue that he picked up in the Manchester derby, and the defender is unlikely to play for the Citizens before the World Cup.


Erling Braut Haaland

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Foot Possible return date: October 29 (vs. Leicester City)

Erling Braut Haaland was substituted at the interval against Dortmund on Tuesday due to a knock on his foot, while he had also been struggling with illness, so the striker will need to be assessed ahead of this match.


Joao Cancelo

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Illness Possible return date: October 29 (vs. Leicester City)

Joao Cancelo only played 45 minutes against Dortmund on Tuesday, as he had been struggling with illness before the match, so the right-back is a minor doubt for this weekend's contest.


MANCHESTER CITY'S SUSPENSION LIST

Man City have no suspension issues heading into the Premier League affair.
