Manchester City will be without Vincent Kompany for another 3-4 weeks with a calf injury.

Kompany returned on Boxing Day after a month out with a calf injury but only lasted nine minutes before re-aggravating his muscle.

"Vincent has an injury, a second degree tear of the calf. It is the same calf but a different part," said Manuel Pellegrini. "We will see how long he will be out, but I don't think it will be less than three to four weeks.

"I am not a doctor, but with a muscle injury, it will be very difficult for him to be back in less than four weeks. But without him, we must continue to defend as did tonight."
