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:

De Bruyne is beginning to dictate the play after having a poor first half. He tries to find Haaland in behind but the striker was not on the same wavelength and reacts late to the pass.

Palace are still forcing Man City to create their chances from a wide position rather than through the middle. De Bruyne tries another cross but it is deflected into the hands of Guaita.

Man City are piling on the pressure now. Ayew wins a free kick to slow the game down but the introduction of Alvarez is causing Palace problems.
