Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Manchester City’s Premier League clash with Crystal Palace.
The Blues begin the day five points adrift of Arsenal with the Gunners having two to play. City can cut that gap to two tonight with a win and ensure the title race extends at least until next Tuesday when Pep Guardiola’s side visit Bournemouth.
Anything other than a victory and Mikel Arteta’s side could win the title on Monday night when they welcome Burnley to the Emirates. City know they have to do their job and rely on either the Clarets or Palace taking points of the Gunners to stand a chance.
Guardiola is set to make changes to the side that beat Brentford last time out given the FA Cup final against Chelsea looms on the horizon this weekend. Rodri and Abdukodir Khusanov are back in training but it would seem a risk to start either while Josko Gvardiol remains sidelined.
The likes of Omar Marmoush, Nico Gonzalez, Phil Foden and John Stones will be among those hoping to get a start tonight.
Kick off is at 8pm and we will have all the build-up, action, reaction and analysis right here so stay with us.
