Pep Guardiola and his assistant manager, Juanma Lillo, have both returned a positive test and are both currently isolating, as per Government guidance.

The Premier League leaders are set to play Swindon Town on Friday - and they hope the game can still go ahead having given no sign that they will be looking for a postponement despite 21 people at City isolating.

Meanwhile at Burnley, the club has not suggested that there is a COVID outbreak and that they still fully expect the third round game to go ahead.

Burnley will not be in any rush to postpone the game as they have already had three postponed in December thanks to COVID outbreaks at other Premier League clubs and will be looking to play those games as soon as they can.
