Savinho, Gvardiol, Dias - Man City injury latest and return dates
Manchester City could be down to the bare bones for the Premier League trip to Bournemouth on Saturday.
Pep Guardiola's side have been hit by a spate of injuries in recent weeks with a host of key players missing. Several will not return until after the November international break while Guardiola was coy on whether those who reported issues during the midweek Carabao Cup defeat at Tottenham, would be fit enough to feature on their return to Premier League action.
It means City may have a similar squad to the one in midweek, particularly with a testing trip to Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League to come on Tuesday. Here's a look at the latest injury news.
