Manchester City will continue their push for a fourth straight Premier League title when they host Aston Villa at the Etihad on Wednesday. Pep Guardiola's side are now three points off league leaders Liverpool after drawing 0-0 at home to Arsenal on Sunday.
It's a tight turnaround through the Easter weekend and City's players have barely had a chance to catch breath before turning focus onto Villa. It also means that those who missed Sunday's draw face a tight race to be available, while Nathan Ake's injury on the day puts him in doubt.
Villa will enjoy the extra day's recovery, having beaten Wolves 2-0 on Saturday, but did not get through their last fixture without issues and top-scorer Ollie Watkins could be absent. He and a few others from both sides will be assessed late on and ManchesterWorld has rounded up the latest injury news ahead of the clash.
