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

Sports Mole looks at the latest injury and suspension news for Manchester City ahead of Saturday's Premier League game at Bournemouth.

Manchester City head into their Premier League fixture at Bournemouth with the opportunity to move back to the top of the table.

Pep Guardiola's side currently sit a point adrift of leaders Liverpool, but the Merseyside giants do not play until Sunday afternoon.

However, City make the trip to the south coast having to contend with a number of injury issues and with the game coming less than 72 hours after the narrow 1-0 win over West Ham United on Wednesday night.

Here, Sports Mole looks at Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their encounter with Eddie Howe's outfit.
