Manchester City: Hart, Zabaleta, Boyata, Demichelis, Clichy, Fernandinho, Toure, Nasri, Navas, Jovetic, Aguero
Subs: Cabellero, Angelino, Sagna, Fernando, Lampard, Milner, Poz

Referee: Craig Pawson Assistants: S Ledger, G Beswick Fourth Official: P Dowd

"Sunderland remain stretched defensively with both Billy Jones and Patrick van Aanholt still on the sidelines.

On-loan defender Sebastian Coates could make his first league start for the Black Cats.

City captain Vincent Kompany is out with a hamstring injury with fellow defender Eliaquim Mangala is serving a one-match ban.

This could see Bacary Sagna shifting to centre-back or alternatively Dedryck Boyata could be handed a rare start."

Head-to-head
  • Sunderland have lost just one of their last six Premier League games against Manchester City (W3, D2, L1). The point they earned in the most recent meeting in mid-April came on the back of five straight defeats and sparked a run of form that led to an improbable survival.
  • City have failed to win on their last five Premier League visits to the Stadium of Light, losing the last four in a row. Their last win there was in in August 2008 when goals from Stephen Ireland and Shaun Wright-Phillips (two) gave City a 3-0 win.
  • Sunderland have won those last four home games against City 1-0. Only one exact fixture in Premier League history has ever finished with the same scoreline in five consecutive matches (Tottenham 2-1 Man City, 2004-05 - 2008-09).
  • City beat Sunderland in the League Cup final last March to give manager Manuel Pellegrini his first trophy at the club.
