Man City vs Watford Team News
Manchester City have been dealt a blow after Rodri came off with just 21 minutes on the clock on his first Premier League start of the season and it's since been confirmed he'll be out for the rest of the season with an ACL issue. Kevin De Bruyne's groin issue isn't as bad as initially feared, though he wont be risked here, but Oscar Bobb and Nathan Ake miss out.
Daniel Jebbison is ineligible to feature here, while Kevin Keben is absent. Both Daniel Bachmann and Francisco Sierralta were forced off in the first half of Watford's 4-1 loss at Norwich and are unlikely to be risked.
