As noted above, Swansea are swans to the slaughter. City are riding high after their 4-2 Champions League victory midweek.
Swansea have won once in their last 10 league games and are managerless. Brendan Rodgers and David Moyes are steering clear.
The Spanish midfielder has been feeling his way back to fitness but should be in full flow for the home tie. With Sergio Aguero looking likely to start, the assists may flow.
Guilermo Varela (Manchester United)
Price: 4.2m

Manchester United are ravaged with injury and defence has been hit hardest.
Louis van Gaal likes what he has seen of Varela in his 135 minutes of senior team action. Should feature at left back and will be required to press forward against a Cherries side that are vulnerable at the back.
A cheap buy into a side that should be guaranteed a start. Paddy McNair [4.7] and Cameron Borthwick-Jackson [4.0] are other options.
Marko Arnautovic (Stoke City)
Price: 6.1m
Get in while you can. I missed the Romelu Lukaku boat and now can't get the lad in.
The Austrian is listed as a midfielder but often plays up front for The Potters and rammed home two against Manchester City last week.
The task facing him is a trip to West Ham's Boelyn Grounds but the Hammers are struggling of late.
The Italian loves a good spell of winter hibernation and this season is no different. Started the season well but has a single goal in his last six outings.
The Saints are away to Crustal Palace, who are always susceptible to conceding the odd goal, but they are without a league win in three games.
Pellé is an expensive striker to have in your team in a season where cheaper gems are available.
Roberto Firmino (Liverpool)
Price: 8.1m
Darragh Murphy recommended the Brazilian only last weekend and I still have the lump in my squad but patience is wearing thin.
He looked immense against Manchester City but has been 40 shades of gash since then. Suffers when Christian Benteke starts and that should be the case for the Reds home fixture.
West Brom are just the side to skitter out of Anfield with a 1-1 draw in their back pocket.
Aaron Cresswell (West Ham)
Price: 5.5m

A pricey defender to have in your backline and one that has only delivered twice in the last 10 gameweeks [5 points and 6].
The Hammers are winless in five and conceded 15 goals in nine games before they came up against toothless Manchester United last weekend.
You can do better than Aaron Cresswell.Explore more on these topics:
