Manchester City vs Tottenham team news: Fernandinho hoping to prove fitness ahead of second leg
The Brazilian missed Sunday's victory at Crystal Palace with a muscular problem but has since been training at "low intensity", according to manager Pep Guardiola

Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho is hoping to prove his fitness ahead of the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Tottenham.
The Brazilian missed Sunday's victory at Crystal Palace with a muscular problem but has since been training at "low intensity", according to manager Pep Guardiola.
Left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko (hamstring) is unlikely to feature in the game at the Etihad Stadium but forwards Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling are fit despite minor concerns.
Meanwhile, Guardiola has said he wants to hear a packed Etihad Stadium in full voice as City bid to turn around their tie against Tottenham.
Guardiola would like fans to replicate the atmosphere from their raucous victory over Premier League title rivals Liverpool in January.
"The Liverpool game would be enough for me, a little bit better," said City boss Guardiola. "We need it.
"Do it for the guys - the last 20 months, they are so proud with what they have done but they are human beings. They will have bad moments in the games and at that moment we need our supporters.
"At this stage, without supporters, we cannot go through. I'm expecting.
"I'm really curious to see how our fans are going to react tomorrow, really curious."
Provisional squad: Ederson, Muric, Walker, Danilo, Stones, Otamendi, Laporte, Kompany, Mendy, Delph, Gundogan, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, D Silva, B Silva, Foden, Sterling, Sane, Mahrez, Aguero, Jesus.
