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

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

Manchester City will be looking to wrap up this season's Premier League title when they welcome fourth-placed Chelsea to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday evening.

Pep Guardiola's side are currently 13 points clear of second-placed Manchester United at the summit and now have just four matches of their league campaign remaining.

The Citizens booked their spot in the Champions League final on Tuesday evening, meanwhile, courtesy of a 2-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of their semi-final, which secured a 4-1 aggregate success.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Chelsea, who are battling to hold onto fourth spot in the table.
