Frenkie de Jong has been ruled for five to six weeks with a hamstring injury picked up in training, and Gerard Martín is also unavailable on Saturday due to suspension. Gavi (knee) is back in training but still awaiting his clearance, while Andreas Christensen (knee) remains sidelined with a long-term injury.
Leeds have lost each of their last five Premier League games against City, having lost just four of their first 16 against them in the competition (W7 D5). City have won their last two away league games against Leeds - only once have they won three consecutively, doing so in their first three visits to Elland Road between 1924 and 1928.
I hope this game will work like a wake-up call. It's amazing with football that you can prepare, and you can be aware of things, but then, for some reasons you forget about it, or you don't do it. The problem we had was, mentally, we didn't take a step against them. The counter-attacks were a little bit the same.

Osasuna are a modest club who are happy to be just in La Liga. They do tend to push as high as they can and ended up as high as ninth in the La Liga table last season. While it may not be too likely that Alessio Lisci's side will do as well this time around, one suspects that they will be happy if they end up in the top half of the table.
The preamble from the reverse fixture two months ago bears repeating. Because, I mean, c'mon yet while this will be the 42nd 43rd time the Premier League leaders have played the side propping up the entire table - winning 30 out of 41 31 out of 42, with seven draws who are responsible for two of the four historical shocks? Why, Wolverhampton Wanderers, that's who! Click below to reminisce, my old MBM pals.
With the first leg taking place in Thessaloniki, PAOK will recognise the importance of establishing control before next week's return fixture. Razvan Lucescu's team arrive on the back of a goalless draw with AEK Athens-a result that extended their unbeaten run but also underlined a slight dip in attacking sharpness. PAOK have nonetheless demonstrated resilience in recent weeks. Three wins and two draws from their last five matches across all competitions reflect a team capable of grinding out results.
Champions PSG are able to name an all-star front three in their all-French knockout play-off round first leg. Luis Enrique's side narrowly missed out on a place in the top eight a year after beating Inter emphatically in the final and now face an extra hurdle against familiar foes. At eighth in the French top flight, Monaco are 20 points behind PSG and finished four points and 10 places below them in the league phase of the Champions League.
Real Madrid can regain the Liga leadership with a win over Real Sociedad tonight. Alvaro Arbeloa's men have regularly claimed top spot only for Barcelona to take it back and that could be the situation again this weekend with the Catalans going to Girona on Monday night. Madrid won 2-1 in San Sebastian in September and a repeat would see them go two points clear.
Liverpool go into this match off the back of an impressive midweek win at Sunderland that eased the pressure that has been building on Arne Slot. Brighton by contrast are reeling from the concession of a late, late winner at Aston Villa. Meanwhile the Reds have won four of their last five matches against the Seagulls. So. But! Brighton created plenty of chances in their 2-0 defeat at Anfield a couple of months ago.
