We’ve got three fixtures to enjoy on this Sunday of Premier League action. After league-leaders Manchester United narrowly took three points yesterday at Villa Park, it’s time for the other two title contenders to respond. The Dugout Discussion opens for the juicy encounter at the Etihad Stadium between hosts Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur. The team news is in, and is as follows…

Man City XI: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Nastasic, Clichy, Yaya Toure, Barry, Kolarov, Silva, Tevez, Aguero.

Spurs XI: Friedel, Walker, Gallas, Caulker, Vertonghen, Sandro, Huddlestone, Lennon, Bale, Dempsey, Adebayor.

Roberto Mancini makes four changes from last weekends goalless draw against West Ham, which includes the return of David Silva after a month-long lay-off. As for the visitors, Jermain Defoe misses out despite a midweek hattrick in the Europa League, which means Emmanual Adebayor lines up against his former employers.

Following events in Manchester there will be another tasty battle, this time in the capital where Liverpool travel down to Chelsea. In and amongst, at 3p.m., Newcastle United welcome the visit West Ham United.

You can take in all the action in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which is open and can be accessed right here.

    Mata is this season's Silva 2011/12 - attacking returns a go go, goals, assists and pivotal in a title-contending team.

    Whereas it seems Cazorla is this season's Mata 2011/12 - playing beautifully and attacking in a top team, but not getting consistent returns.

      I think Silva may be getting back to decent form, worth keeping an eye out for him.

      But yes, Mata has been great so far.

    Okay boys

    a) tevez => berba for a hit
    b) keep tevez and upgrade to suarez later, might go as far as gw15 then

    worry is tevez price plummet and berbas price hike

    Just realised this is Suarez vs Terry, wonder what they're talking about on the pitch.

    In my mind, neither should be playing.....

      Well, I find them both despicable, but I'm not sure their careers should be ended over it.

      Then again, banning that fan for life whilst keeping Terry captain is even more shameful than T-Shirts.

      Nolan doesn't usually get bonus points, but if it stays like this (which is unlikely IMO) then yes he should take all 3.
