Catch some reserve action before travelling to Boro!

Reigning Football League reserve champions Manchester City will return to the top of the totesport.com league today if they can see off local rivals Rochdale.

So far this season the young Blues have won three and drawn one of their four games and this afternoon's match is a 2pm kick-off which takes place at the Regional Athletics Arena, SportCity.

As with all home reserve team fixtures admission is free of charge for Seasoncard, Citycard members, Junior Blues and Live4City members.

Alternatively admission price is £3 for adults and £1 concessions, payable on entry at Gate 3 and the game should provide those travelling from CoMS to Middlesbrough for tonight's Barclays Premier League a chance to watch the first half at least and check out the progress of some of the latest young talent coming through the Club's Youth Academy ahead of the defence of the FA Youth Cup.

And that young City squad for the game is:

James Wood
Kingsley Grandison
Thomas Smith
Omar Elabdellaoui
Oliver Nicholas
Sean Tse
Adrian Cieslewicz
Andrew Mitchell
Jack Redshaw
John Guidetti
Craig Frater
Michael Jukes
