Wigan Athletic will try to halt the English Premier League champions, when they host Manchester City in the English Premier League.
The Latics are slowly but surely making their way up the table, and will be buoyed by the 3-2 victory over Reading over the weekend, although City will be looking for nothing but three points after playing a turgid goalless draw at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea.
That result meant they relinquished top spot to Manchester United, and with both the top teams playing at the same time, neither will want to lose points.
City are the only unbeaten team remaining in the Premier League, but City assistant manager David Platt wants his side to start winning more games after drawing five of their 13 matches.
"The unbeaten run is there, it becomes a thing people talk about but it counts for nothing if you are drawing games and drawing games and drawing games," he said. "We see that after 13 games as we are still a point behind United, who have lost three games, but have also got 10 victories.
"You don't try to protect it(the unbeaten record). What this team has learned to do over the last two years is go into every match and believe it can win. We will try to protect the unbeaten run but not to the point where we are going to stop trying to win games.
"If we had been beaten at Stamford Bridge, I don't think Roberto Martínez would be approaching it any different. It gives you a confidence that you are difficult to beat but that is all it does. The stats are there -- if we get beaten in one game but win three rather than winning two and drawing one, you are two points better off."
Gael Clichy is ruled out, while Vincent Kompany did not have any problems after playing the 90 minutes against Chelsea, following a knock. Jack Rodwell is still a few days away from making a return.
For Wigan, Shaun Maloney (groin) and Gary Caldwell (hamstring) will undergo fitness test, but Ivan Ramis is a major doubt. McArthur and forward Franco di Santo are expected to feature.
