Sits on bench versus Switzerland Cancelo was an unused sub in Tuesday's 6-1 victory over Switzerland.

Impact Cancelo surprisingly sat on the bench in this match after starting in each of the previous three for Portugal and his nation's immense success in this clash could easily see him stay on the bench despite no official reports of an injury. Diogo Dalot and Raphael Guerreiro slotted in the two full-back spots versus Switzerland.

Sent off Saturday Cancelo was sent off in the first half of Saturday's match with Fulham.

Impact Cancelo was shown a straight red card in the 26th minute after preventing a goal scoring opportunity for Fulham, resulting in a penalty kick. Cancelo will miss City's final match ahead of the World Cup against Brentford through suspension.

Active in win Cancelo put two shots off target and created one chance on six crosses during Saturday's 1-0 win over Leicester City.

Impact Cancelo spent more effort in making offensive plays as the hosts sat exceptionally deep for most of Saturday's match. With no goals or assists in his last five matches, Cancelo has had to get busy in defense against strong opponents.

Impact Cancelo and Erling Haaland both played through illness during the first half but were taken off by the interval. As it looks like he would've skipped Tuesday's match had Sergio Gomez not been suspended, the illness was serious enough to make Cancelo take some rest but not enough for him to be ruled out entirely. Going into Saturday's trip to Leicester City there shouldn't be a major worry about Cancelo but it's worth tracking the status of a player who has yet to miss a start.

Clean sheet in UCL draw Cancelo took one shot (one on target), sent in five crosses (zero accurate) and created one chance in Tuesday's 0-0 draw with FC Copenhagen. He also won one tackle.

Impact Cancelo was second on his Man City squad in crosses for the evening during what was otherwise a rather uninspired performance on both sides. That said, fantasy managers will be pleased with the clean sheet result, and this represents Cancelo's third clean sheet in four UCL matches thus far. Three formidable EPL matches await City in short succession as the World Cup approaches.

Scores, assists in win Cancelo scored one goal on one shot and logged one assist on three chances created from six crosses (two accurate) during Saturday's 4-0 win over Southampton.

Impact Cancelo still started at left-back as Manuel Akanji might be able to play on the right, keeping the lineup a little less disturbed while Kyle Walker (groin) is out. So far, Cancelo has scored twice and logged four assists between the league and UCL, making him an impressive contributor from a deeper position though he could still be an inconsistent target playing for a team with many high-potential contributors.

Logs four crosses in win Cancelo logged four inaccurate crosses, put two shots off target and won two-of-three tackles during 57 minutes of Wednesday's 5-0 win over Copenhagen.

Impact Cancelo has done more defensively than in the attack in recent weeks, recording 11 tackles (eight won) in comparison to taking four shots in that time. With Kyle Walker now out long-term, expect Cancelo to start more frequently at right-back and this could cause some change to any attacking emphasis. As Cancelo moves to the right, Sergio Gomez is set to take his place as the starting left-back.

Logs assist in victory Cancelo assisted once to go with one shot (zero on target), five crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Wednesday's 2-1 win against Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Cancelo keyed the game-winning goal by delivering a well-placed cross to a charging Erling Haaland in the 84th minute. His five crosses were also second on the squad to Kevin De Bruyne, and he was a focal point of the City game plan for much of the evening. Cancelo maintains a rather fantasy-friendly role for a defender, and that shouldn't change anytime soon.

Impact Cancelo completed the most passes of any player on his team, which shows how important he's become under manager Pep Guardiola. It will be fascinating to see if he can match his seven assists recorded last season, but it's also worth making sure he can achieve a similar influence in the attack in an ever-changing lineup with strict roles.
