Team News: Manuel Pellegrini rings the changes

Manuel Pellegrini makes five changes to his Manchester City side for the visit of Crystal Palace.

Manuel Pellegrini has made five changes to his Manchester City side for the visit of Crystal Palace this afternoon.

There are two changes at full-back, with Aleksandar Kolarov and Pablo Zabaleta returning to the fold, while Fabian Delph gets the nod ahead of Yaya Toure, who drops to the bench.

Raheem Sterling also begins the game in the dugout as Pellegrini hands starts to David Silva and Kelechi Iheanacho, who makes his second full debut up front alongside Sergio Aguero.

The out-of-form Palace have just one change, as Connor Wickham comes in for the injured Bakary Sako.

Manchester City: Hart; Zabaleta, Otamendi, Demichelis, Kolarov; Fernando, Delph, De Bruyne, Silva; Aguero, Iheanacho
Subs: Caballero, Clichy, Sagna, Humphreys, Toure, Sterling, Navas
