Manchester City are back in Premier League action tonight as they welcome Crystal Palace to the Etihad Stadium, with Pep Guardiola’s side desperate to keep their title hopes alive. Every point matters now, and anything less than a win would leave the Cityzens facing an uphill battle against league leaders Arsenal, who currently sit five points clear with one more game played.
City come into this match in impressive form, boasting a 13-game unbeaten streak in the Premier League. Their dominance at home is even more staggering—they haven’t lost a league game on their own turf since August. With just three fixtures remaining, Guardiola knows the pressure is on to deliver maximum points and pile the heat back on the Gunners.
There are a few injury concerns to monitor ahead of kickoff. Abdukodir Khusanov missed the weekend win over Brentford and remains a doubt, with Guardiola confirming he’ll make a late call on both the defender and midfield anchor Rodri. Nathan Ake stepped in admirably against Brentford, earning praise from his manager for a rock-solid display, and he could line up alongside Marc Guehi—who made the switch from Crystal Palace to City back in January.
On the attacking front, all eyes will be on Jeremy Doku. The Belgian winger has been on fire lately, bagging three goals in his last two Premier League outings, and he’ll be eager to continue that red-hot streak against his former rivals.
Possible Manchester City Starting XI: Donnarumma; Nunes, Guehi, Ake, O’Reilly; Gonzalez, Bernardo; Semenyo, Cherki, Doku; Haaland
