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

Sports Mole rounds up all of Manchester City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Watford.

Manchester City will aim to keep pace with Chelsea at the top of the Premier League table when they meet Watford on Saturday evening.
