Man City host Tottenham in the late kick-off on a busy Saturday in the Premier League.
There were boos last time out for Spurs after defeat to Wolves, and Antonio Conte has been furious at the coverage and reaction to his interview with the Italian media, where he bemoaned the transfer situation after January, despite spending big to sign Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski, both from Juventus.
Spurs meet a City side in fine form after their demolition of Sporting in the Champions League this week, to all but secure their place in the quarter-finals following the one-sided first leg. Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden and Raheem Sterling all enter this game in fine form and pose a huge threat to Spurs as they bid to keep alive hopes of a top-four finish.
The task at hand has been simplified by City’s dominance in possession though, which could aid Conte’s ability to drill his side this week on the training ground in hope of at least a performance to promote confidence down the straight as Harry Kane considers his future this summer with just two years remaining on his contract.
Follow the build-up, live score and goal updates, analysis and reaction from the Etihad Stadium below:

Crystal Palace 0-1 Chelsea - Blues celebrate Ziyech goal
Full-time: Southampton 2-0 Everton
All over at St. Mary’s too. An impressive display from Southampton sees them ease past Frank Lampard’s Everton. The Toffees haven’t won in 10 Premier League away games now.
Full-time: Liverpool 3-1 Norwich
Liverpool came back from a goal down to comfortably beat Norwich at Anfield. They close the gap on Manchester City to six points but the league leaders still have to play today. They kick off against Tottenham at 5.30pm.
GOAL! Crystal Palace 0-1 Chelsea (Ziyech, 89’) ⚽️
89 mins: Chelsea look like they’ve stolen it at the death! Marcos Alonso swings a great ball into the far side of the box from the left wing. The ball drops over Tyrick Mitchell who lets it go. He doesn’t see Hakim Ziyech arriving and the Chelsea man volleys a cool effort straight into the back of the net!
Liverpool 3-1 Norwich
88 mins: Liverpool are cruising to victory at Anfield. Watford are winning against Aston Villa, Burnley are also beating Brighton which means Norwich are heading to the bottom of the table as it stands.
GOAL! Southampton 2-0 Everton (Long, 84)⚽️
84 mins: Shane Long has secured the points for Southampton. It’s a deserved goal for the home side. Stuart Armstrong slots the ball out to Tino Livramento on the right side and he whips a cross to the back post. Shane Long leaps higher than everyone else and nods the ball back across goal to send it into the far bottom corner.
GOAL! Arsenal 2-0 Brentford (Saka, 79’)⚽️
79 mins: Arsenal double their lead through Bukayo Saka! That should be that at the Emirates stadium. Brentford lose the ball and Alexandre Lacazette sends it up to Saka on the left hand side. He drives at goal with only the goalkeeper to beat and then slots it coolly past Davd Raya.
GOAL! Aston Villa 0-1 Watford (Dennis, 78’)⚽️
78 mins: Huge goal at Villa Park. Ashley Young has just come for Villa. Ismaila Sarr floats a cross to the back post and Young doesn’t spot Emmanuel Dennis’ run into the box. Dennis gets in front of the defender and nods it home to put Watford in front. Huge goal for the visitors.
