Takes two shots in UCL victory Gundogan had two shots (off target), two chances created, five crosses (two accurate), two dribbles and three corners in Wednesday's 2-1 win over PSG.
Impact Gundogan was fairly active in this one and delivered a solid stat line in terms of peripheral stats. He's now without a goal or an assist in three straight matches though but has taken at least two shots in each of his past four outings while racking up six chances created and nine crosses over the same period and has been knocking on the door for a big one. Set pieces also boost his numbers.

Available against Burnley Gundogan (thigh) will be an option for Saturday's matchup with Burnley. Manager Pep Guardiola told reporters, "Gundogan is back."
Impact It was a pretty straightforward update from Guardiola but it could mean a return to the starting XI for Gundogan following his three-match absence. Prior to picking up his thigh problem, the midfielder recorded one goal on 13 shots (two on target), one assist, 32 crosses (seven accurate) and 25 corners in six contests, including one UCL appearance. Given his offensive upside, Gundogan should be a top-half fantasy target heading into Saturday's matchup.

Pictured in training Gundogan (thigh) was pictured in training ahead of Saturday's match against Burnley.
Impact Gundogan has been out since Sept. 18 with a thigh injury, but he used the international break to recover and could be an option to start as soon as Saturday. He's been a regular when healthy, so if ready for a full 90, he'll likely take the spot of Bernardo Silva against Burnley.

Undroppable for England, Sterling down pecking order at City

Out until international break Gundogan is out until the international break, according to manager Pep Guardiola. According to Tobi Altschaffl of Bild, it's a thigh injury.
Impact This update kind of came out of nowhere after Gundogan was said to have a "minor knock" one week ago. Now that we know it's a thigh injury, a two-week absence makes sense, as it's a muscle issue. His absence means Kevin De Bruyne may have to play a little more than the team probably wants following his ankle injury.

Status unknown for Saturday Gundogan (knock) was not mentioned by name in Pep Guardiola's press conference ahead of Saturday's trip to Chelsea.
Impact Gundogan is one of many unknowns for Saturday's match, but given that it was a minor knock, there's a good chance he's in the XI. He went a full 90 in the draw against Southampton and after Kevin De Bruyne went the entire way midweek, it's expected Gundogan will take up that midfield role against Chelsea.

Out for midweek match Gundogan is dealing with a minor knock and will miss the midweek Cup match, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impressive in win Gundogan took six shots (one on goal) and created four chances from eight crosses (two accurate) during Saturday's 1-0 win over Leicester City.
Impact Gundogan also took seven corners in this game and put up good numbers for completing the third-fewest passes of any City player.

Up next is Wednesday's UCL match against RB Leipzig, and Gundogan started all 12 games in European competition last season.
