Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany is set to return for the Premier League champions against Burnley on Sunday.
The 28-year-old has missed the previous two matches with calf and hamstring problems, with Martin Demichelis and Eliaquim Mangala playing in his absence.
Strikers Edin Dzeko and Sergio Aguero remain sidelined, but Stevan Jovetic could feature after being an unused substitute against West Brom on Boxing Day.
City are aiming for a tenth successive win in all competitions – a club record – against the Clarets, but boss Manuel Pellegrini insists his side will take no notice of statistics.
"Really I am not aware of the records, Pellegrini said. “We just want to continue adding points because it will be a very close fight for the title this year and we want to keep our title."
Provisional Manchester City squad v Burnley: Hart, Caballero, Sagna, Zabaleta, Kompany, Demichelis, Mangala, Boyata, Clichy, Kolarov, Nasri, Silva, Navas, Milner, Toure, Fernando, Fernandinho, Lampard, Jovetic, Pozo.
