Sergio Aguero is set to start for City against Chelsea |
CHELSEA have received a blow ahead of their clash with Manchester City this Sunday.
City striker Sergio Aguero is in contention to start.
The Argentina star was a substitute in the 3-0 win over West Brom on Monday night following the Copa America.
But last season's Premier League top scorer could be in from the start at the Etihad.
Chelsea drew their opening match, 2-2 with Swansea, and could find themselves five points behind City after just two games if the lose.
Chelsea are without Thibaut Courtois (suspended) while Oscar is a doubt.
City midfielders Fabian Delph (hamstring) and Fernando (groin) are the only definite absentees while left-back Gael Clichy (ankle) will be assessed.
Provisional City squad: Hart, Caballero, Sagna, Zabaleta, Kompany, Demichelis, Mangala, Denayer, Clichy, Kolarov, Silva, Nasri, Navas, Toure, Fernandinho, Aguero, Bony, Sterling, Iheanacho.
