Manuel Pellegrini: Injury update ahead of home game against Crystal Palace

By

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini says a number of key players will again not be available for selection this weekend.

The Citizens could only manage a draw at home against Everton in mid-week and will be desperate to take all three points when they host Crystal Palace on Saturday.

"The injuries are exactly the same as the last game, we are without Fernandinho, Mangala, Bony, Vincent, Nasri, Patrick Roberts," Pellegrini explained.

"Probably one or two of the players will be fit next week.

"Kelechi is in the squad list – we'll see tomorrow the starting XI. He's a young player who is working every day with the team. When young players have the option to play games they have to take their chances and every time Kelechi has done that and played very well.

"It's important for him to work every day with important players. I especially think he will be an important player.

"Every game is different, we had a very difficult game against Palace in London winning in the very last minute.

"We were in a very good moment at the start of the season, scoring a lot of goals. It was a close game, maybe here in the cup was a bit easier but we don't think tomorrow will be easy at all.

"They're a strong team with important players."
