Man City get major injury boost ahead of Chelsea showdown
Manchester City have been handed a major boost with Ederson expected to be fit to face Chelsea on Saturday.
The Brazilian shot-stopper is back in training after a thigh injury kept him out of the 3-1 away defeat at Liverpool before the international break.
Claudio Bravo came in against the Reds but was criticized for two of the goals as City dropped nine points behind their title rivals.
And it means there is no room for error when the current champions host Frank Lampard’s in-form side.
Guardiola will be encouraged with the news that his main man could be back between the sticks after he took to the training ground this week.
Ederson didn’t travel with Brazil over the international break and instead remained at the complex to make a swift recovery.
