Fixture: Manchester City vs West Ham United
Competition: Premier League
Kick-off: 13:30 (UK time)
Manchester City have announced their starting line-up and substitutes to host West Ham in a Premier League game this afternoon.
Citizens manager Manuel Pellegrini has chosen to go for Sergio Aguero to spearhead his side's attack, while the Argentine will be supported by veteran midfielder Frank Lampard, who lines up against one of his former clubs. Also included from the off for Manchester City are Jesus Navas and Yaya Toure, the latter being the side's captain.
If Pellegrini needs options off the bench he has Samir Nasri to add creativity and Edin Dzeko goals, while Bacary Sagna is also amongst the substitutes as a defensive option.
Manchester City head into the match sitting in fourth spot in the Premier League and four points behind third placed Manchester United. Following Manchester United's loss at Chelsea yesterday, victory for the Citizens would put them just one point behind their local rivals with five games left to play.
