Manchester City team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the first leg of their Champions League last-eight tie with Tottenham Hotspur.

Manchester City head into the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final with Tottenham Hotspur having secured a place in the FA Cup final at the weekend.

Pep Guardiola and his squad are looking to complete the quadruple at the end of the campaign, and an early goal from Gabriel Jesus gave the North-West giants a 1-0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion.

However, City face three games with Spurs in the space 11 days, and the results from those encounters will prove significant as City attempt to contend with a hectic fixture schedule.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Guardiola's team ahead of their first-ever visit to Spurs' new stadium.
