TYRONE Mears and Stephen Jordan return to their former club as Burnley manager Owen Coyle names an unchanged side for the third game in a row this afternoon.

The Clarets go in search of their first away point, or points, of the season at the City of Manchester Stadium, where Emmanuel Adebayor and Kolo Toure return for the Blues.

Mark Hughes' men are unbeaten at home, only dropping points to Fulham last month.

Can Graham Alexander add to last week's winning brace and cause an upset at Eastlands?

MANCHESTER CITY: Shay Given, Wayne Bridge, Pablo Zabaleta, Stephen Ireland, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Gareth Barry, Joleon Lescott, Emmanuel Adebayor, Kolo Toure, Carlos Tevez, Craig Bellamy.

Subs: Stuart Taylor, Micah Richards, Michael Johnson, Roque Santa Cruz, Martin Petrov, Nigel de Jong, Vladimir Weiss.

BURNLEY: Brian Jensen, Tyrone Mears, Clarke Carlisle, Steven Caldwell, Stephen Jordan, Graham Alexander, Andre Bikey, Chris Eagles, Wade Elliott, Robbie Blake, Steven Fletcher.

Subs: Diego Penny, Michael Duff, Kevin McDonald, Joey Gudjonsson, David Nugent, Steven Thompson, Fernando Guerrero
