Man City given major injury boost for Liverpool title race run-in

Manchester City have been handed a major injury boost ahead of the title run-in with Liverpool as defender Ruben Dias returned to training this week.

The 24-year-old has been sidelined for almost six weeks and missed the crunch clash against the Reds at the Etihad on Sunday. The 2-2 draw has kept the title race very much alive, despite City maintaining their one point lead in the table.

It has been reported that, while he's back in team training, their clash against Atletico Madrid midweek in the Champions League could come too soon. City take a 1-0 lead into the second leg at the Wanda Metropolitano as they look to book themselves a spot in the semi-finals against the winner of Chelsea vs Real Madrid.
