Aston Villa v Manchester City
Villa Park, Birmingham

Saturday 28 September 2013
Kickoff: 3:00PM

Referee: Michael Jones
Assistants: G Beswick and R Ganfield
Fourth Official: Lee Mason

Given we saw a shuffled pack against Stoke just before our Champions League fixture midweek ... will we see a similar lineup against Villa on Saturday? Or given that this time mid-week game is on Wednesday (and not Tuesday) that gives them an extra day, plus this time we are playing at home, so no travel ... will that change anything?

I think we'll see something like this:

Hart
Richards - Kompany - Nastasic - Kolarov
Fernan - Yaya
Navas - Aguero/Jovetic - Nasri
Negredo

I think he'll start Dzeko, Zaba, Clichy and Silva mid-week against Bayern and maybe hold them back here, and maybe Aguero too.

Is Benteke definitely out? Would make things much easier. We need a good away win in the league I feel.

He's out for 6 weeks with a hip injury

Will we finally see the black away kit?

Saw it last night on Natalie Pike. Decided that the wet rubber look is actually quite appealing.

Not sure it'll look quite so pleasant on overweight, male football fans though.

I wonder if we will see full back rotation kick in now. Richards and Clichy have just come back from injury so two games in 5 days might be too much. So those two will likely play Bayern and Zaba/AK will play Villa. Shame for Zaba as he's been immense.

I'd like to see Jovetic get a start this weekend. Nasri will play and Silva won't. If Rodders is fit id like to see him, but I think he's injured

That's what I thought but I can't see Micah playing two games in 5 days coming off of injury...

I asked first ;)

I'm looking for a couple, me and my dad are looking to go. We can't make many games because I play that game with a funny shaped ball to quite a high standard so my Saturday's are took up on a weekly basis. I'm banned for 2 weeks for a straight red, so hoping to make a couple of games! Plus, I don't live too far from the Villa :)

I never get caught for doing that, to tell the truth, most players like it when I do that so don't moan!! lol

Just punched someone, not as interesting as them articles!

Hart

Zabs
Vincent
Nastasic
Kolarov (shock,i must be mad)

Fernandinho
Yaya
Navas
Nasri

Negredo
Aguero

4,1,3,2

So basically the derby team.

Agureo and Silva will miss Villa game.

Silva I expected to miss but why Aguero?

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero will not feature in their Premier League game against Aston Villa.

Manager Manuel Pellegrini has decided not to risk the Argentine ahead of next Wednesday's Champions League clash against Bayern Munich after he suffered a knock in the Manchester derby last weekend.

Pellegrini said: "Aguero finished the last derby in the last play with a small pain, I think it was nothing important but I think it was a risk for him to play three games in the same week.

"We will leave him for next Wednesday but he will be absolutely fine."
