Kompany is set to spend up to a further month on the sidelines following the recurrence of a calf injury that has restricted him to just eight Premier League starts from 19 games this season.

Raheem Sterling was a danger in the first half for City at King Power Stadium, forcing Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel into three saves, while striker Jamie Vardy wasted the home side’s best chance by blazing over the bar when clear on goal.
Leicester are coming into this match after a 1-0 loss to Liverpool last week, while Manchester City had a solid 4-1 win last week against Sunderland.
The Belgium global has suffered a string of calf injuries that have hampered his season.
‘I am not a doctor, but with a muscle injury, it will be very hard for him to be back in less than four weeks.
Pellegrini’s side remain without an away win in six league outings since a 1-0 victory at Crystal Palace on September 12.
But Claudio Ranieri will want to see his team continue to fight on as they have for most of this season if they want to bag a Champions League spot that would mean so much to the club and its fans. “I don’t have a word to say how I am happy because it is hard”, he said.
“We are taking one game at a time, we are only halfway through, there are still a lot of games to play and points to be gotten”, he added.
Nicolas Otamendi believes Manchester City have the depth to cover Vincent Kompany’s absence. The bigger teams should be able to stay away from us but we are there and we would love to stay there.
“We are showing how good we can be as a team”.
Manchester City will travel to Watford on Saturday while Leicester will host Bournemouth, who has one defeat in last seven games.
“I always enjoy these type of games, against really physical opponents who are very quick, where it is really important to do all the diagonals and anticipate every single movement”.
“I wanted to see a reaction from the Liverpool game and it was good”, the Italian said. It is fantastic what we’re doing. It was hard but we played well, we created some chances. “I told my players we are at the basement but the other sides are a villa with swimming pool and everything”.
