Squad sheets: Manchester City v Bolton Wanderers

Manchester City continue the great game of applying pressure on Manchester United by hoping to defeat Owen Coyle's strugglers before the Reds travel to Tottenham for the late kick-off on Sunday. As only Carlos Tevez is unavailable, expect Roberto Mancini to select a strong XI that will fancy its chances of an easy afternoon against the league's second-bottom team. Bolton last won in the league on 21 January and have taken only a point from their last four outings so a minor miracle is required for them to gain anything here.
