Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Luton Town on Saturday.

Fresh from their Champions League thriller with Real Madrid in midweek, Manchester City return to Premier League action on Saturday when they welcome Luton Town to the Etihad Stadium.

Three days after beating Crystal Palace 4-2 in the top flight, the Citizens resumed European duties and played out a 3-3 draw with Los Blancos in the first leg of their quarter-final showdown at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday night.

Pep Guardiola's men are sure to have one eye on next Wednesday's second leg on home soil, but they will now turn their attention back to the Premier League where they currently sit third in the table and just one point behind both second-placed Liverpool and leaders Arsenal.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Rob Edwards's side.

Phil Foden

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Knock
Possible return date: April 13 (vs. Luton)

After scoring a stunner in the draw with Real Madrid, Phil Foden hobbled off in the closing stages with an apparent Achilles/calf injury, but the attacker has since reassured City supporters that his issue is not a serious one, so he could be involved on Saturday.

Kevin De Bruyne

Status: Minor doubt
Type of issue: Illness
Possible return date: April 13 (vs. Luton)

Kevin De Bruyne was in line to start against Real Madrid, but Guardiola revealed prior to kickoff that the playmaker "started to vomit" in the dressing room and was "not ready" to play at the Bernabeu. De Bruyne, who eventually watched on as an unused substitute, will presumably be fit to feature on Saturday.

Kyle Walker

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: April 13 (vs. Luton)

Kyle Walker has missed each of Man City's last four matches in all competitions since sustaining a hamstring injury on international duty with England last month, and it remains to be seen whether the right-back will be fit to return on Saturday.

---

Nathan Ake

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Calf
Possible return date: April 13 (vs. Luton)

Nathan Ake has missed the last three games since hobbling off with a calf problem in City's 0-0 draw with Arsenal at the end of last month and, like Walker, it remains to be seen whether the defender will be fit to feature on Saturday.
