BOOST: Emmanuel Adebayor

Friday November 6,2009

By Julia White for Express.co.uk

MANCHESTER City striker Emmanuel Adebayor and defender Kolo Toure look certain to return for tomorrow’s Barclays Premier League visit of Burnley to Eastlands.

Adebayor and Toure missed Sunday’s goalless draw at Birmingham with ankle and heel injuries respectively, yet have trained without issues over the past two days.

Left-back Wayne Bridge and striker Roque Santa Cruz are doubtful and rated as 50-50 by City manager Mark Hughes with knee and ankle problems.

Provisional squad: Given, Bridge, Zabaleta, Lescott, Wright-Phillips, de Jong, Toure, Ireland, Barry, Kompany, Bellamy, Tevez, Santa Cruz, Adebayor, Petrov, Sylvinho, Richards, Taylor, Johnson, Weiss.
