Schmeichel has missed City's last three games with a calf injury but manager Kevin Keegan is confident he will return for the game against his old club.

"Peter was out training on Tuesday morning for the first time for a while,"Keegan told City''s official website.

"It is not a case of judging his fitness at the moment but how he is for the rest of the week.

"I think Peter has a very good chance of being fit for the derby if he does not have any setbacks. Just as we thought we were getting him back in the past few weeks he has had a number of setbacks, so we will wait."
