Manchester City team news: Injury, suspension list vs. RB Leipzig

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's injury and suspension news ahead of their Champions League clash with RB Leipzig.

Manchester City will be aiming to make it five wins from five matches in the Champions League this season when they welcome RB Leipzig to the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night.

The Citizens top Group G with 12 points, already booking their spot in the knockout round of the competition, but they are yet to secure first position in the section.

Pep Guardiola's side will enter the match off the back of a 1-1 draw with Liverpool in the Premier League, and they have now dropped to second position in the table.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Leipzig, who have also already advanced to the last-16 stage of the European Cup, winning three of their four matches in the section to collect nine points.
