Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini starts with attacking trio David Silva, Kevin De Bruyne and Sergio Aguero for the trip to face West Ham United.

The Chilean hands Fabian Delph a place in the centre of the midfield for the visitors alongside Yaya Toure in a positive line-up at Upton Park.

Raheem Sterling and Fernandino are among the high-profile options on the City bench if they’re required.

The Hammers, meanwhile, have new signing Sam Byram, the defender signed from Leeds United this week, on the bench.

Slavan Bilic, the West Ham boss, starts Dimitri Payet behind Enner Valencia for the hosts, who know they can close in on the Premier League top four with a win.

Today’s line-ups...

West Ham United: Adrian, Jenkinson, Reid, Collins, Cresswell, Kouyate, Song, Antonio, Noble, Payet, Valencia

Subs: Randolph, Obiang, Moses, Ogbonna, Byram, Jelavic, Oxford

Manchester City: Hart, Sagna, Otamendi, Demichelis, Clichy, Toure, Delph, Silva, De Bruyne, Navas, Aguero.
