Game thread: City v Wigan

Back to on field matters after the news of the past couple of days and following last weekends draw against Fulham, todays game is one where three points have to be obtained to get the top four bid back on track.

The relative ease with which victory was achieved in midweek at least allows Roberto Mancini (in what is his fiftieth game in charge) to field a full-strength side before heading out to Kiev for next weeks Europa League tie and the expectation will be that three points will be achieved.
