Nick Cushing Preview
However, our Interim Head Coach has confirmed that Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw and Aoba Fujino will miss the encounter at Stamford Bridge, with City currently holding a two-goal aggregate lead.
Cushing admits Hasegawa’s return is still touch and go after the midfielder left the Etihad on crutches, but he hasn’t ruled out her availability for Thursday.
“After the game there was concern, and it’s not ideal to bring off two key players - we have to find the solutions to that,” he said.
“The plan has to be a little bit better, the group did an amazing job over the three games, you can see the games have been even.
“Two top teams going at each other - having those players back is a testament to them and their commitment but also to the incredible work of the medical team.
“Yui leaving the ground in crutches and I’m not going to jump the gun and say she’ll be ready.
“The group has been incredible the likes of the youngers players to go into these games and be as confident and hungry as they are is only to going to help.
“The likes of Aoba [Fujino] and Bunny [Shaw] won’t make the game. It wasn’t ideal to take off some key players, but we’ve worked hard to make sure the squad are competitive for the game.”

Last time out
In our third encounter with Chelsea in eight days, the latest saw City fall to a late 2-1 defeat at the Etihad Stadium.
Kerolin Nicoli gave Cushing’s team the lead just after the half-hour mark with a composed finish. But second half goals from Aggie Beever-Jones and Erin Cuthbert meant Chelsea stole all three points in injury time.
The league loss means City remain fourth in the table.
