Petit (thigh) will not be available for Tuesday's clash against Valencia as he continues to work with the medical staff, according to coach Manuel Pellegrini. "Lo Celso and Petit are not with the team yet. They continue working with the physios."
Analysis:Petit will miss a second straight league match as he continues his recovery from the thigh injury that kept him out against Real Sociedad. The forward has yet to return to team training, leaving his return date uncertain. His situation is also worth monitoring with a potential departure still possible before the transfer window closes.
