Erling Haaland has been ruled out of Manchester City's trip to the Amex.
The centre-forward will not face Albion tomorrow due to an ongoing muscular issue.
Manager Pep Guardiola insisted the matter was not a serious one for the 20-goal striker, who could come back into contention Sunday’s clash with Nottingham Forest, and was boosted by Phil Foden and John Stones both getting the green light after their own fitness concerns.
Guardiola said today: “Erling is not ready for tomorrow, the other two – they are ready.
“I know it is not a big issue, but he is not allowed for this game.”
City are now four points behind Arsenal after Leandro Trossard and Ben White led the Gunners to a 5-0 thrashing of Chelsea last night
