Manchester City team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Brighton & Hove Albion

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.

Manchester City return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon when they play host to Brighton & Hove Albion at the Etihad Stadium.

Pep Guardiola has witnessed his side suffer back-to-back defeats in England's top flight, with the most recent coming by a 1-0 scoreline away at Arsenal.

However, after a period where the defending champions have been impacted by injuries to key players, the international break came at the right time ahead of resuming their quest to retain their trophy.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the showdown with Roberto De Zerbi's side.

Kevin De Bruyne underwent hamstring surgery at the end of August and the Belgian is not expected to return until the beginning of 2024, although Guardiola provided an encouraging update on the playmaker's recovery before the international break.


MANCHESTER CITY'S SUSPENSION LIST

With Rodri having completed a three-match suspension, City have no players suspended for this contest.
