Roberto Mancini has given Adam Johnson and Samir Nasri the chance to impress as they welcome Stoke City to the Etihad Stadium.<\/p>\n

There is also no place on the bench or in the starting line-up for Edin Dzecko who was expected to be fit for the game after shaking off a knock he picked up in training.<\/p>\n

Tony Pulis is without Ryan Shawcross after the defender picked up his fifth yellow card and is therefore suspended for the tie.<\/p>\n

Gael Clichy has returned to the Manchester City line-up after serving a suspension, coming in for the injured Aleksander Kolarov who is still out with a groin problem.<\/p>\n

Manchester City starting XI:<\/strong> Hart; Richards, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy; Yaya, Barry, A.Johnson, Silva, Nasri; Aguero<\/p>\n

Subs:<\/em> Pantilimon, Zabaleta, Kolo, Savic, De Jong, Milner, Balotelli<\/p>\n

Stoke City starting XI:<\/strong> Sorensen, Woodgate, Huth, Upson, Wilson, Shotton, Palacios, Whitehead, Jerome, Walters, Jones<\/p>\n
