As Pellegrini will definitely play 4-4-2, I'd not be surprised to see Jovetic starts with Silva behind Aguero and Negredo.
Kompany and Nastasic in defence with Clichy left back. It's in line with the ones who have played lately in both cupgames.
It's a game where Sherwood might go for it (play 4-4-2). I hope so as that would play into our hands.
As for the back line, MP made it clear that Demichelis is his preferred centre back. So I would expect him to play ahead of Nasty and Lescott. I also have a preference for Kolarov ahead of Clichy. I can understand those that are afraid of Lennon, but I think that Kolarov is so dangerous going forward that MP will take the risk and play him ahead of Clichy.
In regard to The Beast, I think he will start on the bench and come on for Edin in the second half. The Chelsea game is the one where The Beast will start.
