Manchester City team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Burnley

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League trip to Burnley.

Manchester City have just three more matches to tick off in their quest to become the first Premier League side in a decade to win back-to-back titles.

The Citizens maintained their winning domestic run with a 2-0 victory at Manchester United on Wednesday night, four days on from beating another top-six rival in Tottenham Hotspur.

Next up is a trip to Burnley, whom City have defeated 5-0 twice already this season in the top flight and FA Cup.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Pep Guardiola's men ahead of Sunday's match at Turf Moor.
