The team line-ups are in for tonight's glamour pre-season friendly between City and Ajax.

City name new signings Dean Gerken and David Clarkson in the starting eleven, with the other recruits left to wait until the second half to debut; Paul Hartley, Lewin Nyatanga and Danny Haynes.

Trialists Alexei Eremenko and Grigos Papazacharias are also on the bench, along with Peter Brezovan - a Slovak keeper whose previous experience in England came at Swindon Town between 2006 and this summer.

Adriano Basso misses out through a slight knock, as does Gavin Williams and Jamie McCombe.
