Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has been forced to leave Sergio Aguero out of his starting lineup against Aston Villa this evening.

The Argentine striker picked up a knee injury during training and so misses out on his side's Premier League game at Villa Park.

Aguero has been replaced by his compatriot Carlos Tevez in the City lineup.

Aston Villa: Guzan; Lowton, Clark, Baker, Bennett; Westwood, Delph; N'Zogbia, Agbonlahor, Weimann; Benteke

Manchester City: Hart; Zabaleta, Kolo Toure, Nastasic, Clichy; Garcia, Milner, Rodwell; Silva, Tevez, Yaya Toure
