City are unbeaten in 4 games, the last three of them two league draws and a win and will be looking to push further into mid table rather than skirting with the bottom. Willie Boland is still struggling with injury and will not be available.
Palace will be without top scorer Andrew Johnson who was injured at Reading in midweek but will still have a Premiership front line of Clinton Morrison and Jon Macken. Morrison was a City target during the summer and a nother former City target, Fitz Hall, will line up in defence.
City old boy Jobi McAnuff should be available after injury and may be on the bench.
Palace are just above City in the table. The Eagles have 10 points with three wins and a draw from seven games while City have 8 points after 2 wins and 2 draws, also from 7 games.
Kick off is at 3:00pm. Come along and bring a friend.
City likely line up.
Alexander, Weston, Loovens, Purse, Barker, Koumas, Ledley, Cooper, Whitley, Jerome and Ricketts. Subs Margetson, Cox, Ardley, Parry and Lee.
