Still unavailable Wednesday De Bruyne (illness) will be sidelined for Wednesday's clash with Aston Villa.

Impact De Bruyne will be out of action for his fourth consecutive clash following his positive COVID-19 test. Even if the midfielder can return to training ahead of Saturday's matchup with Watford, he figures to be a long shot for the starting XI given his extended layoff.

Yet to train with team De Bruyne has tested negative for COVID-19, but he's yet to train with the team ahead of Wednesday's trip to Villa, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact De Bruyne is negative, but that doesn't mean he's fit and ready to play. Considering he's not training, it's hard to see him starting Wednesday with the best-case scenario being that he's on the bench having missed the last three matches.

Unlikely to play Sunday De Bruyne (COVID-19) is unlikely to be an option for Sunday's match against West Ham as he still has a couple more days in quarantine, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact There's no reason to think De Bruyne will play Sunday, as it looks like the first time he can re-join the team is Sunday, which will give him no time in training. Unless Guardiola wasn't being truthful, it looks like De Bruyne will be available for the Dec. 1 game and not this weekend.

Tests positive for COVID-19 De Bruyne tested positive for COVID-19 while with Belgium and will be out the next 10 days, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact This is a bombshell that Man City kind of kept under wraps outside of De Bruyne missing Thursday's training. It's yet another absence for the Belgian, who has struggled with fitness in the early season because of an ankle injury. Fortunately for City, Ilkay Gundogan is healthy again and will be able to fill in in the midfield.

Impact De Bruyne scored in his second consecutive Premier League appearance on Saturday, putting the game out of reach for his opponents.

Scores in draw De Bruyne scored once on five shots (one on goal) during Sunday's two-all draw with Liverpool.

Impact De Bruyne scored late to salvage the draw for Manchester City, after falling to a wasteful performance for most of the match. De Bruyne was desperate to put anything on net, and ended up shooting freely, with the most shots in the match. The midfielder is one of the best in the Premier League and has a smash spot against Burnley after the break.
