Defending champions City are third in the Premier League, but just one point behind leaders Arsenal, who are ahead of Liverpool only on goal difference. “Kyle’s [injury is] more tough than John’s but they will be out. I don’t know for how many games,” said Guardiola at his pre-match press conference on Friday. However, there was more positive news for Guardiola as Ederson, Manuel Akanji, Jack Grealish and Kevin De Bruyne all look set to return from injury.
