Man City will be without two players for the upcoming RB Leipzig clash

Without Kevin De Bruyne and Aymeric Laporte, Manchester City has traveled to Germany for their Champions League match against RB Leipzig. Laporte and De Bruyne, two crucial players for City who are seeking to take the lead in their last-16 first leg at Leipzig, were left off the traveling team for the match. Pep Guardiola would have to explain the duo’s absence after they both played at Nottingham Forest over the weekend.

John Stones, who is still out with a hamstring injury, is also not present, but otherwise, City has kept the same lineup as the team that drew at Forest on Saturday. The squad includes Shea Charles and Alex Robertson, as well as Maximo Perrone, who joined in January and was later part of the Champions League squad.
