Manchester City boss Stuart Pearce will have to dip into his FA Youth Cup final squad for this weekend's match with Chelsea.
City, who were knocked out of the FA Cup on Monday, are without 10 players for the trip to Chelsea on Saturday.
"I only have 13 senior players available for Saturday, so I will have to juggle things about and bring a few youngsters in," said Pearce.
"I don't look at the situation with disappointment, I see it as an opportunity for players to prove themselves.
"And, after the defeat on Monday, we couldn't wish for a better test than going to play the champions."
