Manchester City Vs. Tottenham Hotspur: Lineups

Tottenham Hotspur travel to Manchester City knowing that only a victory would leave them with any hope of catching their rivals for the fourth and final Champions League berth for next season. Unfortunately, they'll have to do so without the services of Gareth Bale, Heurelho Gomes and anyone recognised as a left back.

No such worries for Manchester City, who welcome Carlos Tevez back into the squad, although the Argentinian striker can only find a place on the bench. Edin Dzeko finds himself leading the line once again, but it doesn't look at though the hosts will have too many problems here.

Manchester City: Joe Hart; Pablo Zabeleta, Joleon Lescott, Vincent Kompany, Micah Richards; James Milner, Nigel De Jong; David Silva, Yaya Toure, Adam Johnson; Edin Dzeko.

Substitutes: Shay Given, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Aleksandar Kolarov, Patrick Vieira, Carlos Tevez, Dedryck Boyata, Mario Balotelli.

Tottenham Hotspur: Carlo Cudicini; Danny Rose, William Gallas, Michael Dawson, Vedran Corluka; Wilson Palacios, Sandro; Rafael van der Vaart, Luka Modric, Aaron Lennon; Peter Crouch.

Substitutes: Stipe Pletikosa, Younes Kaboul, Roman Pavlyuchenko, Jermain Defoe, Sebastien Bassong, Niko Kranjcar, Stephen Pienaar.
