Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli (ankle) and right-back Micah Richards (hamstring) are fit for Sunday's Barclays Premier League clash against Tottenham. Both players missed the leaders' 1-0 win at Wigan on Monday. City are still without suspended captain Vincent Kompany while fellow defender Kolo Toure and his brother Yaya, the dynamic midfielder, are at the African Nations Cup. | |||||

Tottenham captain Ledley King only has a small chance of playing as he struggles to recover from the hamstring injury which has sidelined him for the last four weeks. Jermain Defoe is likely to partner Rafael van der Vaart up front as Emmanuel Adebayor is unavailable due to the terms of his loan deal from City. Sandro, William Gallas (both calf) and Tom Huddlestone (ankle) are unavailable. | |||||
