Pep Guardiola press conference LIVE Man City team news vs Atletico Madrid for Champions League
Pep Guardiola will give a Manchester City team news update ahead of the Champions League quarter-final second leg at Atletico Madrid this afternoon.
City hold a 1-0 advantage after the first leg, and were boosted by the return of Ruben Dias to training on Monday after a six week absence with a hamstring injury. It's unlikely that Dias will be ready to play against Atletico in Madrid, but Guardiola could give an update on his progress and potential availability for the weekend's FA Cup semi-final vs Liverpool.
Gabriel Jesus is suspended after picking up a yellow card in the first leg, while Kevin De Bruyne and Joao Cancelo will miss any semi-final first leg if booked.
Guardiola is likely to be asked about Atletico's style, with Diego Simeone approaching the Etihad clash extremely defensively and his side failing to muster a single shot on goal. City train at 11am before Guardiola's press conference at 1pm, while Simeone will face questions from Spanish media before that.
