Friendly preview: Manchester City v Borussia Dortmund

City take on Borussia Dortmund for the Ferrostaal Cup this evening and City fans will be hoping for their glimpse of Aleksandar Kolarov. Whether Roberto Mancini is also there remains to be seen.

It’s to be hoped he can make it back from Italy as the friendly against Inter proved little more than a fitness exercise where his absence combined with Patrick Vieira’s sending off to leave the blues focused on damage limitation.
