Manchester City will be without Gabriel Jesus and Kyle Walker for the Boxing Day visit of Newcastle in the Premier League after the duo tested positive for coronavirus.

Defender Eric Garcia, who continues to be linked with a move to Barcelona, is also absent with a leg injury.Record goalscorer Sergio Aguero, who is being eased back into action after a knee problem, could be in contention to start in Jesus' absence, after a 16-minute run-out in the Carabao Cup in midweek.

Newcastle captain Jamaal Lascelles and winger Allan Saint-Maximin are still missing as they continue to recover from Covid-19.

Federico Fernandez could be available after missing the midweek cup defeat at Brentford through muscle fatigue.

Goalkeeper Martin Dubravka is close to returning from a heel injury.

Honestly, I am beginning to hate guardiola, he is too stubborn..... Wetin aguero and Fernandinho dey do for bench...... Why is he play Ferran Torres as our main striker,..... Why is he always play gundogan and rodri in the holding midfield, when only Fernandinho would do the work better than those two players. .... Why why why
