The latest on John Stones and Kyle Walker ahead of Manchester City vs Borussia Dortmund (UEFA Champions League)

Manchester City face Borussia Dortmund in their second Champions League group-stage game of the campaign at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday evening.

The Premier League champions ran out 4-0 winners in their opening European clash of the season in Seville last week, with Erling Haaland, Phil Foden and Ruben Dias amongst the goals at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium.

City's league game against Tottenham at the weekend was postponed following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on Friday afternoon.

The Blues return to Premier League action on Saturday as they face Wolves in a lunchtime kick-off at Molineux Stadium, though several games across the division will remain called off.

City made their way to the semi-finals of Europe's elite club competition last season but a late capitulation at the Santiago Bernabeu saw Pep Guardiola's men surrender a two-goal lead in the dying minutes of the return leg and crash out in gutting fashion.

With several changes made to the first-team squad this summer, Manchester City have made an impressive start to their league defence and remain unbeaten across all competitions so far this term.

Borussia Dortmund suffered their second Bundesliga defeat of the season at the weekend against RB Leipzig - days after a 3-0 triumph over FC Copenhagen in their Champions League opener.

Jude Bellingham, Marco Reus and Raphaël Guerreiro were on the scoresheet for the German side at the Signal Iduna Park last week.

Here is the complete team news on both sides ahead of what has all the makings to be an exciting 90 minutes at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester City team news

Pep Guardiola confirmed in his press conference on Tuesday afternoon that John Stones is in contention after training with the squad ahead of the clash.

Kyle Walker has been ruled out after missing training and is facing a race against time to be involved against Wolves at the weekend.

Despite returning to training this week, Aymeric Laporte is expected to remain on the sidelines as he recovers from surgery on his knee.

Borussia Dortmund team news

Dortmund forward Thorgan Hazard has made the trip to Manchester despite coming off at the weekend with a thigh injury in the first-half against Leipzig.

Marius Wolf and Reyna could be involved should Hazard be deemed unfit to start, with question marks over the fitness of Donyell Malen (thigh) and Karim Adeyemi (foot) ahead of the clash.

Gregor Kobel, Sebastien Haller, Mahmoud Dahoud, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Mateu Morey are all long-term absentees and are not expected to play any part on Wednesday evening.
