Iheanacho set to miss Middlesbrough clash

Iheanacho could yet again miss out of the matchday squad as Manchester City take a trip down to Middlesbrough.

Relegation-threatened Middlesbrough are home to Manchester City on Sunday in the Premier League in a game they must win to keep whatever hopes they have of staying in the top-flight alive.

City on their part, must also win to maintain their fourth place and possibly usurp Liverpool in third, as the race for the final two Champions League places continue.

Gaston Ramirez is back in contention for Middlesbrough after missing the win over Sunderland because of suspension.

Daniel Ayala is doubtful after twisting his ankle, while Victor Valdes and Grant Leadbitter could miss out again.

Manchester City will be without goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, whose season could be over after he suffered a calf injury in the Manchester derby.

There are concerns over the fitness of David Silva and John Stones, but Bacary Sagna returns after five weeks out.
