The Norwegian striker has scored 25 Premier League goals this season.

Manchester City head coach, Pep Guardiola, said: “Erling has a knock; he was uncomfortable.”


“At half-time I spoke with the doctors. They said maybe with the score like it is we don’t take risks, and I agreed.”

Guardiola further said: “If the score was tighter, then maybe I don’t do it. I think he is not injured but on Monday we are going to see.


“Hopefully he can be in for Wednesday. But if he is not ready or there is some risk, he is not going to play.”
