Riyad Mahrez fired Manchester City back to the top of the Premier League as the champions won 1-0 against Bournemouth on Saturday. Pep Guardiola's side sit two points above Liverpool thanks to Mahrez's second-half winner. The only frustration for City in a hard-fought victory were injuries to Kevin De Bruyne and John Stones.

De Bruyne hobbled off after the Belgian midfielder suffered a non-contact injury in the first half. City also lost England Stones with an unspecified problem just after the interval.
