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

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

Manchester City host Southampton on Saturday for the second time in five days after their midweek EFL Cup encounter.

Pep Guardiola's rotated team picked up a 3-1 victory on Tuesday, a result that extended their winning run to four games in all competitions since the international break.

Southampton, meanwhile, are without a win in the league since the middle of September and they enter Saturday's fixture looking to respond to their record 9-0 loss against Leicester City last Friday.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of welcoming the Saints to the Etihad Stadium.
