Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has no doubts Mario Balotelli will be a big Premier League hit.
Balotelli is a surprise package and his debut in the Europa League qualifier last Thursday suggested he will be real handful.
He scored the only goal against Romanians Timisoara but picked up a knee injury. Yet scans revealed no serious damage and he is expected to feature tonight.
Mancini added: "He is suited to the Premier League because it is different to Italy's Serie A. The defenders do not know much about him but they will see he can change everything about a game. It's the same with Carlos Tevez.
"I saw Mario four years ago when he was 16. It was the last five games of the Serie A championship.
"Zlatan Ibrahimovic was injured and we played Mario inside and he played like someone of 30 years old. That's because he has good technique - he has everything.
"Mario is young, always wants to play and always wants to score."
