Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Ederson will miss a huge Premier League encounter against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday through injury.
The Premier League's top two sides are due to meet for the first time this season at the weekend, with six points currently separating them in the table.
Liverpool have gained a healthy advantage after winning ten of their first 11 fixtures, but City can make up significant ground with a win on Merseyside.
Ederson will not be between the sticks for Guardiola's side though, after failing to shake off a muscular issue suffered on Champions League duty.
"Ederson is not able to play. I don’t know how long he will be out for. Sunday, he cannot play," said the Spanish boss.
"We have another top keeper. Claudio Bravo can do it too. We won the Carabao Cup thanks to Claudio. He's an exceptional keeper."

We don't need our opponents to be injured before we win games, afterall we have been winning without our no 1 keeper, Allison. So Ederson or not, we're winning

Lyon vs injured Tiger. But sometimes injured tiger can be more dangerous. Be careful dear Liverpool.
