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

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

Local bragging rights are on the line at Old Trafford on Saturday lunchtime, as Manchester United and Manchester City face off in a Premier League derby.

The Citizens head to the home of their bitter rivals on the back of a 4-1 success over Club Brugge in the Champions League thanks to goals from Phil Foden, Riyad Mahrez, Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus.

However, Pep Guardiola witnessed his side go down 2-0 to Crystal Palace in their most recent Premier League game - a result which leaves them third in the rankings, five points behind leaders Chelsea.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man City's injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
