Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has revealed that Kyle Walker, John Stones and Nathan Ake will all be assessed ahead of Saturday's Premier League encounter against Watford.

Walker has missed City's last two games since landing awkwardly on his ankle in the goalless draw against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on April 13.

Stones and Ake, meanwhile, were withdrawn in the 3-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion on Wednesday with respective hamstring and ankle problems.

Speaking at his press conference on Friday, Guardiola said: "[Walker is] getting better, we'll see tomorrow. Stones has niggles, like Nathan we leave until tomorrow and we see."

City were boosted by the return of Ruben Dias in midweek, who came on at half time to replace Ake, making his first appearance since March 1 after recovering from a hamstring injury.

The 24-year-old-back will be in contention to start on Saturday and he is likely to rekindle his centre-back partnership with Aymeric Laporte, while Joao Cancelo and Oleksandr Zinchenko are the two most likely candidates to start at full-back.

With title rivals Liverpool preparing for the Merseyside derby against Everton on Sunday, City could move four points clear at the top of the table with victory over Watford on Saturday, a game in which they could break an all-time English football winning record. body check tags ::
