Fernandinho and Aymeric Laporte will be given until Sunday to prove their fitness for the Premier League title crunch at West Ham on Sunday. The pair were both forced off through injury at Wolves on Wednesday night, leaving the Blues with a makeshift centre-back pairing of Nathan Ake and Rodri.
And if the two injury doubts do not make it after three days of intensive treatment, that is a likely starting duo at the London Stadium. Guardiola confirmed that neither Laporte nor Fernandinho has trained for the last two days but did not rule them out of being fit for the Hammers clash, when a win would put the Blues on the brink of clinching the title.
Laporte suffered a nasty-looking knee injury in a collision with Wolves striker Raul Jimenez at Molineux on Wednesday night and after trying to battle on was forced to limp off. That saw Ake - who has also been struggling with an ankle problem - step in to partner Fernandinho.
