Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has revealed that Micah Richards could return to the starting lineup for Sunday's match at home to Arsenal.
The defender missed the Premier League leaders' defeat at Chelsea on Monday night due to a calf injury.
"I think Micah will be okay for Sunday," said Mancini.
Monday's loss at Stamford Bridge was City's first in the league this season.
