Erling Haaland misses out for Manchester City at Newcastle today.

The striker has now missed a month of action due to a foot injury, but returned to training shortly before City's recent FA Cup win over Huddersfield.

Pep Guardiola admitted following that 5-0 victory that Haaland had only an outside chance of featuring at St. James' Park on Saturday, but on Friday ruled the player out.
