Manchester City fullback Pablo Zabaleta admits Sergio Aguero needs a goal.
Since returning from the resulting five-week lay-off a month ago he has not found the net, going scoreless in five games.
Zabaleta said: "We need Sergio to come back to his best like he was in November, December when he was doing everything for the team - scoring goals, working hard for the team.
"But after being injured for a long time for some players it is difficult to come back to his best, in terms of fitness.
"I am sure Sergio will come back to his best. It is about confidence as well. The strikers need to feel they are in a good moment. Scoring goals is the best thing for them and I am sure as soon as Sergio scores one goal then he will again be one of the best strikers in the league."
