Manchester City expect captain Kyle Walker to be fit for Sunday's clash with Arsenal.

Walker was released from the England camp due to a hamstring strain. The full-back was forced off early into Saturday's defeat to Brazil.

However, Sky Sports says City are confident he'll be fit for the Arsenal clash.

City meet Arsenal knowing victory will see them return to the Premier League leadership.

This season, Walker has started 25 of City's 28 Premier League games so far.
