Man City vs Crystal Palace injury news as 10 ruled out and 1 doubt

Crystal Palace kick off the Premier League’s action on Saturday, facing Manchester City in the early game. The Eagles are now in 11th place after their hard-fought win over rivals Brighton, and Oliver Glanser will want his side to finish strongly as they look to build for next season.

Meanwhile, City are in the midst of a battle for a top four spot, currently one point off Chelsea in fourth. This could be a key game in the top four race, and here we round up the latest injury news surrounding both teams.

Rodri - Out

Rodri is going to be out until the summer with his ACL injury. Guardiola has said: “I don't know [if he will feature at the Club World Cup]... I wish, I hope. He's behaving really well [in training], but competition is different. We have to be sure he's fine... Then [we will see].”

Nathan Ake - Out

Ake has an ankle injury that will keep him out until May. Guardiola has said: “10-11 weeks they said to me [to be out]. When you have surgery it’s serious. He has struggled a lot this season with the problems in his feet.”

Erling Haaland - Out

Haaland is also going to be out until May, with Guardiola explaining: “The doctors told me between five and seven weeks [out]. So hopefully, for the end of the season and FIFA Club World Cup, he will be ready.”

John Stones - Out

Stones is out until early May, with Guardiola saying in February: “He can be recovered during eight to 10 weeks without surgery.”

Manuel Akanji - Out

Guardiola said in February: “Surgery on Saturday. 8-10 weeks.” The defender will be out until at least the end of April, if not early May.

Chadi Riad - Out

Riad is out until the winter after an ACL rupture. Glasner has said: “Chadi has ruptured his ACL, so we have lost [him] for the rest of the season and even longer. There was no impact, and Chadi as well, it was just a normal situation in training ' so it's really frustrating.”

Cheick Doucoure - Out

Doucoure is out long-term with a knee injury. Glasner has said: “After further assessments, Cheicky needs surgery on his knee, so we have lost [him] for the rest of the season. We hope [he] will return for pre-season.”

Eddie Nketiah - Out (Suspended)

Nketiah was sent off in the last game and will serve a one-game suspension here.

Marc Guehi - Out (Suspended)

The same applies for Guehi, who is also suspended for this one.

Chris Richards - Doubt

Richards could be back for this one, with Glasner saying after the Brighton game: “Unfortunately, he was very close to training with us today. He was outside on the pitch - but he's not 100 per cent... If it had been the last game of the season, I think he would have started. But we can't take the risk when you see our upcoming schedule.”

Maxime Lacroix - Out

Lacroix suffered a concussion in the Brighton game, so he will be out here as part of concussion protocol.
