Manchester City are aiming to build on Wednesday's 3-0 win over Arsenal and strengthen their hold on second place.

Burnley will seek to rediscover the form they were showing before the league was postponed, having been on a seven-match unbeaten run.

Team news

Claudio Bravo (back) and John Stones (ankle) continue to be monitored by the Man City medical team but Eric Garcia, who suffered a head injury against Arsenal, is ruled out due to concussion rules.

Burnley's Ashley Barnes (hernia), Chris Wood (Achilles) and Johann Berg Gudmundsson (calf) are missing through injury.

Did you know?

Sergio Aguero has scored nine goals in nine matches against Burnley in all competitions. He has netted in all five home meetings against them.

Man City have lost just one of their last 42 Premier League matches kicking off at 15:00 on Saturday. That defeat came against Crystal Palace in December 2018.

Sean Dyche has lost eight times in all competitions versus Man City as Burnley manager. Only against Arsenal has he suffered more defeats, with 10.

The Clarets can become just the fourth team to win away at both Manchester clubs in a single Premier League season after Everton in 1992/93, Middlesbrough in 2003/04 and Liverpool in 2008/09.
