The best coverage of Manchester City this season comes in the FA Cup, although they will have to navigate a complicated obstacle if they want to reach this fifth round this afternoon.
Pep Guardiola’s men go to the One High-Flyers Leyton league orient seeking to be the subject of enormous discomfort.
And visitors will certainly need to play better than on their last visit to London last weekend when they were defeated 5-1 by Arsenal.
Orient is obviously not in the same class as the gunners, but Chief Richie Wellens is a lifelong Manchester United fan and will have his team on Brisbane Road.
Wellens makes four changes to the side he lost at home to stockport county last Saturday.
Tom James, Jack Simpson, Sonny Perkins and Diallang Jaiyesimi enter Brandon Cooper, Darren Pratley, Azeem Abdulai and Dilan Markanday.
Leyton Orient: Keeley, James, Simpson, Happe, Brown, Currie, Donley, Perkins, Galbraith, Kelvin, Jaiyesimi
