Man City travel to Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon in a crucial game in the Premier League title race.

The last time these two met, Palace caused arguably the upset of the season in beating City 3-2 at the Etihad.

Andros Townsend scored a stunner in that game, and is likely to start on Sunday fresh after the Eagles beat Townsend’s former club Newcastle last week.

Man City are looking to bounce back after falling to a 1-0 defeat at Tottenham in the Champions League.

Pep Guardiola’s side have won their last eight league games though, a run which dates back to January.

Crystal Palace vs Man City will be shown live on Sky Sports’ Main Event and Premier League channels from 2:00pm (BST).
