Danilo (pictured) had a decent game on the left for City midweek. Giving Fabian Delph a much-needed rest I would expect to see them both starting at Selhurst Park.

Delph back on the left, while Danilo takes up his more comfortable right back position. Kyle Walker looked a little tired in the last game. He wasn’t making runs forward as he usually does, and mis-read a ball across the box which almost led to a goal.

Center back pretty much has to be Nicolas Otamendi and Eliaquim Mangala unless John Stones is to be rushed back or Vincent Kompany came off after ten minutes for no real reason.
