Manchester City face a Premier League fixture headache in December owing to their Club World Cup participation.

Pep Guardiola’s side won the Champions League for the first time in June, defeating Inter Milan 1-0 in the final. The result means the Blues will travel to the Club World Cup in December.

City will enter the competition in the last four, along with the champions of South America who will be determined in November. Guardiola’s side will face two matches in the tournament with a third/fourth place play off or a final to follow their last four tie.
