FC Twente match preview

Man City returns to UEFA Cup action with Steve McClaren's FC Twente visiting Eastlands.

Mark Hughes will be likely be without Richard Dunne for the match as his knee problem has flared-up, requiring fluid being drained. City has named the following squad:

Hart, Schmeichel, Zabaleta, Onuoha, Richards, Dunne, Ben Haim, Garrido, Ball, Wright-Phillips, Ireland, Kompany, Elano, Robinho, Jo, Benjani, Vassell, Fernandes, Hamann, Evans, Sturridge.

Twente is sitting sixth in the close Eredivisie table, two points out of first place after losing 2-0 to Ajax this past weekend. They are reporting no serious injuries for the match.

I will report on the match as it concludes.
