Manchester City will endeavour to keep the pressure on Premier League leaders Chelsea when they travel to Aston Villa on Wednesday evening.
Pep Guardiola's side saw off West Ham United 2-1 in Arctic conditions at the weekend, with Ilkay Gundogan and Fernandinho netting before Manuel Lanzini's late consolation.
That narrow victory leaves the second-placed Citizens one point behind Chelsea with 13 games played, and top spot could be theirs for the taking if results go their way.
