Pep Guardiola hit by more defensive worries as Manchester City seek to wrap up Premier League title with Aymeric Laporte and Fernandinho doubtful for game at West Ham

Manchester City were left sweating on defensive injuries again as Aymeric Laporte and Fernandinho hobbled out of the victory at Wolves.

Laporte came off after taking a knock to the knee on a night City preserved their three-point lead over Liverpool in the title race.
