Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Southampton.

Manchester City will be looking to make it five straight wins in all competitions when they continue their Premier League campaign at home to Southampton on Saturday afternoon.

Pep Guardiola's side have also won their last three matches in the Premier League to move onto nine points, which has left them in fifth position in the division.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man City's injury and suspension news ahead of the encounter with the Saints, who are unbeaten in their last four matches in all competitions.
