Ruben Dias, Manchester City's key defensive player, will miss the upcoming Premier League match against Arsenal due to a hamstring and ankle injury. The Portuguese international has been absent for the last three matches, including City's Carabao Cup final victory over Arsenal. Despite hopes for his return, it has been confirmed that he will not participate in this crucial top-of-the-table clash at the Etihad Stadium. Simon Bajkowski from the Manchester Evening News reported that Dias is unlikely to return this month, which poses a challenge for Pep Guardiola's side. In his absence, Marc Guehi and Abdukodir Khusanov are expected to form a strong center-back partnership, providing the necessary leadership and stability in defense. While City will miss Dias, they appear to have adequate cover to manage this setback.
