Alvaro Negredo v Branislav Ivanovic
Although Sergio Aguero has been in great form this season it’s £20m signing Negredo that has been the revelation, having taken to English football brilliantly.
The 28-year-old already has 23 goals this term – including three in two in the FA Cup – and should be back to his best in this fixture after struggling with fitness concerns of late.
In the absence of Cahill and Terry, Ivanovic will have to move from the Serb’s preferred position on the right side of defence to take up a centre-back role and could be rusty as a result.
