Man City XI vs Newcastle: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League today

Jack Grealish is likely to miss out through injury but a number of Man City stars are pushing for recalls

Both players picked up knocks during City’s dramatic 3-2 defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League knockout play-off earlier this week.

Defender Akanji is set to undergo surgery on the injury he sustained during that game, while Grealish is also a doubt.

Phil Foden is the most likely candidate having replaced the City no.10 in midweek, though Omar Marmoush will be pushing for a recall and Jeremy Doku could be in contention after being named on the bench last time out.

January signing Nico Gonzalez was injured during the FA Cup win over Leyton Orient and may not start here which could mean another holding defensive midfield role for John Stones.
