A replay shows that Andy King's earlier effort hit Kompany on the way over - perhaps his arm, but both hands were down by his side so no way was that a peno.
6'
Vieira pulls down Wellens after the former United trainee skins the French veteran. Free-kick again to Leicester, Gallacher to take from the left... Kompany rises to head clear.

A free-kick this time to Leicester inside the City half but Wellens's straight ball is intercepted by Yaya Toure. Now Tevez on the ball and he sends Johnson through, he's in and one-on-one but he fires weakly at the keeper Weale! Should have scored.
4'
The corner sees set-piece threat Sol Bamba head on target but weakly into Hart's arms! Leicester seem to have City's number at set plays!

Dyer scoops a cross in from the left, Howard is unmarked far post with a classic knockdown AND KING FINISHES but deflected over! Corner!
2'
Hart with an off-radar clearance/pass aimed for Silva that sails over the little man for a throw. The away fans jeer. Hart, remember, blundered to let the Foxes level in the first game.

The first half underway!

FACTS: Roberto Mancini has played for Sven, twice, at Lazio and Samp. Sven, meanwhile, has managed Manchester City.
19:35
FACT: Manchester City are looking to beat Leicester for the 50th time in a competitive match. They are unbeaten in four league and cup matches against the Foxes (W1, D3).
19:30
So alas Leicester striker Darius Vassell does not make it for a reunion with his former club, Steve Howard leading the line instead. Yakubu is ineligible after his loan deal from Everton was completed after the initial tie, which ended 2-2.

Referee: Mark Halsey (Lancashire)

Well, so a very strong City line-up although Gareth Barry and Nigel de Jong are rested, and Vieira slipping into the starting line-up, Joleon Lescott playing centre-half. Jo does not start, despite Dzeko's absence.

Manchester City team - Hart, Zabaleta, Lescott, Kompany, Kolarov, Toure Yaya, Vieira, Milner, Adam Johnson, Tevez, Silva

CITY TEAM NEWS: One man definitely not playing tonight is mega signing Edin Dzeko as he was not registered in time for this round of the FA Cup. Jo is expected to feature in his absence.
