Fulham boss Chris Coleman has injury problems ahead of the crunch home clash.
Strikers Tomasz Radzinski (back) and Collins John (pulled muscle) both came off in Friday's 4-1 defeat at Everton and are doubtful.
Coleman considers that defenders Ian Pearce (foot) and Franck Queudrue (hamstring) are only 50-50 to be fit, while striker Vincenzo Montella (groin) has a slightly better chance of being involved.
Fulham (from):
Niemi, Lastuvka,
Volz, Knight, Pearce, Christanval, Bocanegra, Rosenoir, Queudrue,
Davies, Brown, Diop, Smertin, Dempsey, Routledge,
Radzinski, McBride, Helguson, Montella, John.
Micah Richards and Dietmar Hamann could be available for Manchester City as the Blues look to hit the key 40-point barrier at Fulham on Monday.
The pair missed Friday's goalless draw against Charlton with calf and ankle injuries respectively but have an outside chance of being fit for the Craven Cottage clash.
Sylvain Distin should also play despite taking a hefty bang on the head late on against the Addicks.
Man City (from):
Isaksson, Weaver,
Onuoha, Sun, Richards, Dunne, Distin, Ball, Jordan,
Sinclair, Dabo, Ireland, Hamann, Johnson, Barton, Beasley, Miller,
Mpenza, Vassell, Samaras, Corradi, Sturridge.
