City could do with a better presence in midfield after some anonymous and laboured performances. With Michael Chopra suspended I'd expect Ross McCormack to partner Jay Bothroyd with Peter Whittingham going out wide.
In my opinion McPhail should start in front of Gavin Rae after Darcy Blake's fine effort last weekend v Middlesbrough.
What we don't need is another inept effort like the disaster at Ipswich in midweek.
City are looking stop stop a run of four consecutive away defeats that's seen 14 goals shipped in those four games.
Leicester City v Cardiff City
Saturday 3:00pm.
