Manchester City

City captain and centre-back Vincent Kompany may miss the rest of the season with a groin injury which meant he was forced off at half-time in the Manchester derby last weekend, while striker Wilfried Bony (ankle/knee) faces at least another week on the sidelines. James Milner (knee), Gael Clichy (groin) and Stevan Jovetic are also ruled out of the clash this Sunday.
