Man City injury news and return dates before Tottenham - Nathan Ake latest

Hoping that Tottenham Hotspur will be in no mood to do North London rivals Arsenal any sort of favours, Manchester City head to the capital to face Ange Postecoglou's side on Tuesday in the Premier League.

The Citizens reclaimed their rightful place at the top of the pile by thumping Fulham 4-0 last time out, as strikes from Josko Gvardiol (two), Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez did the damage.

Consequently, Pep Guardiola's men have opened up a two-point lead over Arsenal at the summit on the same number of games, although the Gunners can return to the gold medal position by overcoming Manchester United on Sunday.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their trip to Tottenham, who confirmed Burnley's relegation to the Championship by beating the Clarets 2-1 on Saturday.

Nathan Ake's race was run against Fulham with just 22 minutes on the clock, and he was in visible discomfort as he was taken off. However, the Dutchman has avoided a serious issue and might come into contention for this one.

Man City have no suspended players for this match.
