Follow live coverage as Manchester City face Crystal Palace in the Premier League today.

Crystal Palace are without Wilfried Zaha for the trip to City. Nathaniel Clyne came into Patrick Vieira’s starting line-up in place of Zaha, who did not make the matchday squad, in the only change to the side that beat Aston Villa 3-1 last weekend.

Riyad Mahrez came into the City side as Ilkay Gundogan dropped to the bench. Ruben Dias replaced the injured Nathan Ake in defence in the only other change to the starting line-up from last weekend’s 3-3 draw at Newcastle.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Crystal Palace's first-half performance was not enough to secure them any points in this fixture. It is the first time Man City have come back from a 2-0 deficit at half-time to pick up a win in the Premier League. Haaland scores his first Premier League hat trick as City move to the top of the table for now. They will play Nottingham Forest in their next game while Crystal Palace take on Brentford at home.

Eze was the player of the first half after he helped Crystal Palace to a 2-0 lead. His free kick was turned into his own net by Stones after a deflection off Walker. His corner 15 minutes later was then headed low into the goal by Andersen. But the second half was the Haaland show. Silva got things started after his deflected effort wrong-footed Guaita and made it 2-1. Haaland then scored a 20-minute hattrick to give his side the win. He finished Foden's cross for his first before tapping home Stones' scuffed shot from a quickly taken corner. Gundogan then played Haaland in behind for his third of the game and the striker showed his strength and clinical nature to end the game.
