Manchester City are preparing for their meeting with Newcastle United hoping to have wrapped up the Premier League title by Friday night.
While City can win the top-flight crown with victory in the North East, defeat for Manchester United against Leicester City or Liverpool will see Pep Guardiola and his squad celebrate before facing the Magpies.
However, the Spaniard will want to see a much-improved performance after City lost out to fellow Champions League finalists Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their 36th league fixture of the season.
