GK) Joe Hart
The England keeper should continue to play ahead of Willy Caballero.
RB) Pablo Zabaleta
One of the best right-backs in the world, Zabaleta will be very important to the Citizens’ fortunes against CSKA.
LB) Gael Clichy
With Kolarov out injured, the left-back slot is Clichy’s to take.
CB) Vincent Kompany
The City captain will be at the heart of their defence, as always.
CB) Martin Demichelis
As Mangala is doubtful for the game, it is likely that the Argentine will be handed a starting spot.
CM) Yaya Toure
He may not have been in great form this season, but Toure is still key to the Sky Blues’ chances in the big games.
CM) Fernando
With the Brazilian seemingly being prefered to Fernandinho in the big games, Fernando looks likely to play in a match that will be crucial for Champions League group qualification.
RM) James Milner
The England man is another who is seen as a big game player, and should start ahead of Jesus Navas.
LM) Samir Nasri
Silva’s injury means the Frenchman should get his spot on the left side of midfield.
ST) Edin Dzeko
The 28-year-old will start alongside his Argentinian strike partner. He will want to play well to keep Stevan Jovetic out of the side.
ST) Sergio Aguero
The Premier League top-scorer should continue up front for City. He will be looking to make an impact so that his team make can make it through to the next round of the competition.
