7 November 2019
Farai Dziva|Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson might miss Sunday’s top-of-the-table clash against EPL leaders Liverpool after he was taken off at halftime in their Champions League 1-1 draw with Atalanta in Milan on Wednesday.
Speaking to reporters after the game, coach Pep Guardiola said the keeper sustained a muscular problem and is not yet sure if he will feature over the weekend.
“It’s a muscular problem,” he said.
“It was a risk so we took him off as he was feeling it late in the first half.
“We don’t know (whether Ederson will be fit to face Liverpool).”
Manchester City are already missing the services of defenders Aymeric Laporte and Oleksandr Zinchenko, while David Silva has a thigh problem ahead of the visit to Anfield.
