remember only too well what happened on their last visit here to the etihad stadium back in september last year when they were thrashed 5-0 last year when they were thrashed 5—0 in the league. they know they cannot afford a similar result here tonight, so despite their advantage, their manager is taking nothing for granted. are still a lot of to do and that is why we are here and not thinking about who is now favourite. —— there is still a lot of work to do, and not thinking about the next round. the only guarantee it to my night is that there will be a pretty passionate atmosphere, obviously that spilt over in the first leg when the city bus was pelted with missiles thrown by liverpool fans as it arrived will stop the only drama will hopefully be on the pitch, liverpool with one foot in the champions league semifinals but manchester city hopeful that they can come up manchester city hopeful that they can come up with something very special. one other key line to come out of liverpool's training was that

still qualify in that top rate. that is it for now. hello again, good morning. west wales, the far south—west of england saw the best of the temperatures and sunshine on monday but for the many other parts of the uk, it was rather dull and misty. we saw rain developing more widely across england, pushing into wales and that will continue to work its way northwards and for most of us, disappointing temperatures this week. a lot of cloud and some rain at times. easterly winds are setting up so it will always be better towards more western parts of the uk. at the moment, our weather map is dominated by a large area of low pressure which is not really going anywhere at all, picking rain up from iberia and pushing it towards france and heading it towards our shores. so the rain that's been developing continues to work its way northwards away and eventually from northern

england up into scotland apart from the far north—west. some wetter weather later for northern ireland. some cloud behind that, rather misty in the hills as it brightens up across the southern parts of england. and we get some sunshine, it will get a bit warmer could trigger some heavy showers around that will continue into the evening. overnight, rain moving away from northern ireland and scotland. the next area of rain comes in around our area of low pressure, originating from germany, moving across the low countries and heading towards england and wales. some uncertainty about exactly where the rain is going to be on wednesday. at the moment, it looks more likely through the midlands, wales, possibly into northern england. should be drier for scotland and northern ireland. again, not too bad for the north—west of scotland but across eastern scotland, north—east england, higher and fret, low cloud, mist and drizzle really low temperatures as well. get some sunshine again across southern counties of england, those temperatures getting into the midteens easily. stronger winds in an easterly wind, always strongest across the northern half of the uk, high—pressure blocking things off from scandinavia with low pressure across france
1:57 am
maintaining that easterly flow. not much wind further south across the uk, so we get a bit of sunshine, it shouldn't feel too bad. not too much of that, mind you. some heavy rain developing in the south—east later on and further north, it's always going to be the eastern side of scotland and north—east england which will be dull and damp, still quite cold as well. still got the same sort of weather pattern, low pressure to the south of us, high pressure to the north and across scandinavia keeping the stronger easterly winds this time, more for northern and eastern areas of scotland where we'll see some more rain developing, probably on friday, pushing across northern england for a time. a little bit brighter further south. some warmth when the sun does come out but still the potential for some showers across england and wales. so quite a range of temperatures for most of us. a disappointing week ahead into the weekend. it's more likely to be wet and windy for northern and western areas of the uk, warmer, drier and brighter in the south—east. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers
