Man City's Rodri to Miss Villarreal, Villa Games, Says Guardiola

Rodri suffers a hamstring injury and has missed matches since October 5, ruling him out of Manchester City's upcoming games against Villarreal and Aston Villa, Guardiola confirmed.

  • On Sunday, Pep Guardiola, Manchester City manager, confirmed Rodri, Manchester City midfielder, will miss the Premier League trip to Aston Villa and the Champions League game at Villarreal on Tuesday.
  • Guardiola said Rodri suffered a hamstring problem that forced him off during the first half of the Brentford match on October 5 and has been sidelined since.
  • Manchester City have won four of their last five Premier League matches and remain unbeaten, while Erling Haaland, striker, has 11 goals in eight appearances.
  • Aston Villa head into the match in fine form after three previous Premier League wins, and a victory would leave them just one point behind City as travelling supporters expect positives.
  • Earlier this month Villa beat Feyenoord 2-0 in Rotterdam on October 2 and will face Go Ahead Eagles on Thursday, sitting joint-top in their Europa League group after two wins.
