Former defender Micah Richards has highlighted the importance of everyone within the Manchester City squad remaining fit following their 2-0 win over Brentford on Wednesday evening.
Goals either side of the half-time interval from Riyad Mahrez and Kevin De Bruyne were enough for City to secure a seventh successive Premier League win at the Etihad Stadium, moving them 12 points clear at the top in the process.
Liverpool will be aiming to reduce City's advantage to nine points when they welcome Leicester City to Anfield on Thursday evening, but Pep Guardiola's side, regardless, will remain in the driving seat to retain their Premier League crown.
