Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini insists there can be a successful future at the club for Mario Balotelli.
For the clash with Blackburn Rovers, Balotelli looks set to retain his place in City's attack with Carlos Tevez still out with a hamstring injury.
Balotelli was involved in a bust-up with Manchester United players after the FA Cup semi-final but Mancini is backing him to turn his career around.
"If he improves his behaviour, maybe everything can change," said Mancini.
