Forward Stevan Jovetic and defender Matija Nastasic are both ruled out of city. For the time being, the Sunderland midfielder Liam bridcutt will be absent as Sunderland will try hard to disturb the probability and defeat Manchester city.

Striker Wickham will not be concerned having joined Leeds on loan for the rest of the period on while the keeper Westwood is the sole man to miss out due to injury.

What city can still win will be decided by the next three games. First end Wembley and a possibility for Manuel Pelegrini to claim for his first cup in English football. Next to corroborate a come back to Wembley in the semi finals by playing against holders’ Wigan in the quarter final of the FA cup. And finally a trip to Barcelona and an effort to capsize a 2-0 shortfall from first leg. All of which may dim their dreams of lifting the premier league.
