What sort of team will Pep Guardiola be able to field against Arsenal in the FA Cup on Sunday?

Here’s who’s currently out for City.

Bacary Sagna (groin)

The 34-year-old was taken off in the 65th minute of City’s 1-1 draw with Liverpool back in March after aggravating an existing groin injury and has been sidelined ever since.

The right-back has returned to training ahead of the Arsenal clash so could be in contention to play.

Gabriel Jesus (ankle/foot)

The 20-year-old is highly unlikely to make the Arsenal game at the weekend after he fractured his metatarsal during City’s win over Bournemouth on Valentine’s Day.

However, he is back in training.

John Stones (knock)

The defender missed City’s 3-0 win over Southampton at the weekend after receiving a knock but Pep Guardiola insisted it’s not serious and he’ll be back in action within days. He’ll therefore most likely be available to play against Arsenal.

Fabian Delph (groin)

Delph has returned to training after undergoing a groin operation at the end of last year. It’s highly unlikely that he’ll be match fit for the weekend though.
