Pep Guardiola has ruled Ruben Dias out of Manchester City's crunch title clash with Liverpool.
The central defender has not played since suffering a hamstring injury in the FA Cup win at Peterborough United last month.
Guardiola does not expect Dias to play any part of City's next three games against Burnley, Atletico Madrid and then Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium on April 10.
John Stones has felt no ill effects of his knock on international duty and is expected to partner Aymeric Laporte in the Portuguese's absence.
