Manchester City will be bidding to move to within five points of Premier League leaders Arsenal when they welcome Liverpool to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.

The Citizens are currently eight points behind the Gunners in the table with a game in hand, demonstrating the importance of picking up a victory against Jurgen Klopp's side.

Pep Guardiola's team have won each of their last six matches in all competitions, including a 6-0 victory over Burnley in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup before the international break.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Liverpool, who currently sit down in sixth spot in the table, seven points off the top four.

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Groin
Possible return date: April 1 (vs. Liverpool)

Erling Braut Haaland did not feature for Norway during the international break due to the groin problem that he suffered in Man City's FA Cup win over Burnley. The centre-forward is therefore a doubt for this match, with a decision on his involvement unlikely to be made until the last moment.
