Teams:

City: Weaver, Richards, Dunne (c), Distin, Jordan, Trabelsi, Sinclair, Dabo, Ireland, Corradi, Vassell

unused subs: Isaksson, Samaras, Johnson, Beasley, Miller

Rovers: Friedel, Ooijer, Henchoz, Khizanishvili, McEveley, Bentley, Savage, Tugay, Pedersen, Nonda, McCarthy

unused subs: Enckelman, Emerton, Gallagher, Peter, Derbyshire

City make one, enforced, change to the starting line up from Tuesday night, with Hatem Trabelsi replacing the suspended Joey Barton. With the Blues changing formation during games of late, we will wait and see if Sinclair plays on the left of midfield in a 4-4-2 or in the middle of a 3-5-2.
At least Richards looks to be covering as right back instead of being pushed in the centre of midfield that should make the defence a lot stronger.

I'd hazard a guess @ 0-0 or 1-1
