Manchester City are set to kick off 2021 with a trip to Chelsea in the Premier League on Sunday.
The Citizens' clash with Everton this week was postponed due to a coronavirus outbreak in their camp, however, putting this clash at Stamford Bridge in jeopardy.
Pep Guardiola's men will enter the game in good form should it go ahead, having gone 10 matches without defeat, winning each of the last three.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the meeting with Chelsea.

Possible return date: January 3 (vs. Chelsea)
Eric Garcia sustained a muscular problem in the win over Marseille on December 9 and has missed City's last five matches as a result. Guardiola was hopeful of having the defender back in early January, so he has a chance of at least being part of the squad next weekend.
