Manchester City know that a win over Leicester at the King Power Stadium on Saturday will take them to the top of the table until at least Sunday afternoon.
The visitors come into the clash having not scored away from home since September 17 when they defeated Wolves 3-0. Their goalless draw with Borussia Dortmund in midweek ensured they topped their Champions League group but at a slight cost.
Erling Haaland came off at half-time with a fever and a knock and is a doubt for the trip to Leicester. Speaking after the game, Pep Guardiola explained: “Erling had a bit of fever before the game, Joao [Cancelo] as well. I saw him tired.”
