Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has paid tribute to Ruben Dias ahead of their clash with Leeds.

Dias made his City debut against Leeds earlier this season.

Guardiola said, "He has been so important so far. We still have two months but he has been so important with clean sheets and leadership and the quality that he has played.

"The game there was a long time ago and football can change in a week. They were not in the first moment but we fought a lot and the first 20 minutes were brilliant. We have to do our best tomorrow again to get results against them. It is a team that the result doesn't matter, the game will not be over, the resilience they have I have never seen before.

"They fought and continued to do it until the end and it is a team you cannot beat them even when 3-0 up. It will be a tight game. I know it right now, like when we played West Ham at 12.30 after the Champions League. But I trust a lot with the players and the way they trained today because they feel that we are in a position where we are close."
