• Joe Hart has fully recovered from his back injury.
• Gareth Barry will feature for the EDS tonight and will likely play forty-five minutes. Mancini views the newly created under-21 league as important for the development of young players.
• Liverpool are a 'strong team' who he expects to be amongst the challengers for the title.
