Simon Bajkowski reports for the Manchester Evening News that Ruben Dias wonât be available for Manchester City this weekend, and his ankle injury is likely to keep him out for the rest of April.
Josko Gvardiol also remains absent, and doubts remain over the fitness of John Stones.
Of course, City signed Marc Guehi in the January transfer window and have Abdukodir Khusanov and Nathan Ake available as well, so theyâll still easily be able to field a natural centre-back pairing on Sunday.

Dias started against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in September, but he missed the League Cup final with an ankle injury sustained in Cityâs Champions League elimination by Real Madrid.
It wasnât initially clear exactly how long Dias would miss, so there was some hope he could return in time for the Premier League clash. But thatâs no longer expected to be the case.
Nico OâReilly was also a doubt for the Arsenal game as it stands, having picked up a hamstring problem last week, but Pep Guardiola has since confirmed the left-back is âfineâ.

Outside of their defensive issues, Manchester City have a surprisingly clean bill of health for this stage of the season. Theyâre not expected to be missing any midfielders, wingers, or forwards for the Arsenal game, and their goalkeepers are all fit and available too.
Itâs only at centre-back that there might be a few absentees, and itâs nothing the team havenât already been dealing with in recent weeks.
