Manchester City injury list as two new names added following Premier League draw with West Ham

Manchester City dropped more Premier League points on Saturday with a disappointing 1-1 draw at West Ham.

Despite dominating the game for large periods, City could not fashion a victory and the draw means Pep Guardiola's side are now nine points behind Arsenal in the race for the title.

The Blues now turn their attentions to the Champions League with Real Madrid in town on Tuesday. City were beaten 3-0 in the first leg of the last-16 tie so have a mountain to climb to reach the quarter-finals and have fresh injury issues to contend with.

Savinho and John Stones missed the trip to the London Stadium due to minor complaints. Here's the injury latest from the Etihad.

Savinho

Injury: Hamstring

The winger was taken off at half time of the defeat to Real Madrid and while that was a tactical change, the Brazilian felt his hamstring and was deemed not fit enough to travel to West Ham. He is expected to be fit for the second leg against Real on Tuesday.

Potential return date: Real Madrid (H).

John Stones

Injury: Ankle.

The England international has had an injury-hit campaign and has only recently returned to action. He felt his ankle in training so was left out of the West Ham game as a precaution. The England international started a week ago at Newcastle in the FA Cup and should be back in the squad for Tuesday, although there will be open training on Monday ahead of it where his injury status will become more clear.

Potential return date: Real Madrid (H).

Rico Lewis

Injury: Ankle.

Lewis has been absent in recent weeks with an ankle problem and is not yet fit enough to return to the squad. "Rico still has a little bit of swelling in the ankle," said Guardiola ahead of the trip to West Ham.

Potential return date: March.

Josko Gvardiol

Injury: Leg.

Gvardiol is a long-term absentee for City having fractured his leg in the January draw with Chelsea. The defender is in a race against the clock to be back before the end of the season and this summer's World Cup.

Potential return date: May/June.

Max Alleyne

Injury: Knock.

Alleyne has not been in the squad since the victory over Salford in the FA Cup. He picked up a knock in that game but did feature in first-team training on Tuesday before the trip to Real Madrid.

Potential return date: March.

Mateo Kovacic

Injury: Ankle.

It has been a frustrating season for Kovacic after suffering an ankle injury in October. The midfielder is back in training and was among the subs against West Ham.
