    FT: C Palace 1-3 Man City!! It's all over here at Selhurst Park! Sterling scored the first two goals and the visitors were in complete control until Milivojevic halve the deficit 10 minutes from time from a free-kick. City were then under the pump, but Jesus killed things off on the counter in the 90th minute. City go top at least for a couple of hours, but in any case, if they win their last five games, they will be champions. Thanks for joining us and see you soon.

    Gabriel Jesus kills off the game!! On the counter. Wan Bissaka tried to meg Bernardo Silva with a quick free kick, it is blocked, the ball breaks to De Bruyne who counters rapidly.

  • 63'
    0-2!!! Sterling scores again!!! Walker passed for Aguero in the middle, who then looked for Silva, Silva was cornered by the by-line and Dann, so he cut back to Sane. The German spotted Sterling on the edge of the six-yard box and he placed the ball into the corner. Game, set and match.
  • 62'
    Man C try and make a good move. Gundogan spoils all that though with an awful hit from outside the area. High and wide.

  • 45'
    HT: C Palace 0-1 Man C! City are dominating this game. The best thing for Palace, who lost Schlupp to injury, is the scoreline. Sterling scored after 15 minutes after a brilliant pass by De Bruyne. Sane could have scored other occasion and City nearly scored once again right on HT. 77% possession, but only 0-1 up. Join us shortly for the second period.
  • 45'
    Zaha gets up annoyed after being tripped by De Bruyne deep in his own half. Nothing more than a foul.
  • 45'
    Two added minutes
  • 45'
    How did that not go in??? Gundogan puts in a spectacular pass from 35 yards, Sane, Sterling and Silva all get in each others way in the area and De Bruyne comes in from behind to shoot. His strike is deflected for a corner.
  • 44'
    Man C are still much much better. However, Kouyate has made a difference since he came on

    David Silva is caught offside when Aguero gives him the ball. Never off.
  • 42'
    Sane is enjoying himself down Palace's right
  • 41'

  • 39'
    Kouyate dispossesses De Bruyne, but Benteke slips at the worst possible moment and Man City break dangerously on the counter. De Bruyne looks for Aguero who inexplicably stops his run and doesn't get on the end of the pass.
  • 37'
    What is Atkinson doing?? McArthur traps the ball in between his legs and is on the floor just outside his own box and instead of being a free-kick for City for retaining the ball, he gives a foul against City!!
  • 36'
    Milivojevic commits a foul on Silva and is duly penalised. City are comfortable.
  • 35'
    Milivojevic can't find anyone in the area and it's a goal kick.
  • 32'
    Unbelievable by Sane! He runs into the box from the near flank beating Townsend and McArthur with ease! He tires to beat with the goalie at the near post and Guaita knocks it out for a corner.
  • 31'
    Great play by Palace!! Milivojevic loops in a ball for Benteke and he heads across for Kouyate. Unfortunately for him, a City player gets there first to clear. Gundogan to be precise. Better from the hosts.

  • 24'
    De Bruyne finds David Silva on the edge of the box and Dann clears his ball in.

    What a run by Sane down this near side! Mcarthur ends up cutting out his cross.

    Schlupp is just down getting treatment after Kompany followed through into him. Sterling was also down, but he will carry on.
  • 19'
    Gundogan looks for Sterling from 25 yards out with a great pass. Sterling heads back across goal and the flag is wrongly raised.
  • 17'
    Man City were going to score sooner or later. They have got the breakthrough and now Palace will have to open up whether it's now or later on. Guardiola's side are in complete control.

  • 15'
    Man City take the lead!! De Bruyne puts in a stunning pass for Raheem Sterling, he takes his time and puts the ball over Guaita and into the goal. Superb stuff.

    What a miss by Sterling! Palace lost the ball in midfield, Sane played a one-two with Aguero and the German then gave the ball to Silva. As the Spaniard was near the by-line, he went past Mcarthur with ease and crossed for Sterling at the far post who inexplicably hit it wide. Glorious chance.

    Remember when these two met earlier in the season, Palace won 2-3 at the Etihad. Townsend scored a stunner that day.

    The players are now out on the pitch! There's a good crowd despite the hosts not having much to play for after basically sealing survival last week.
  • PRVW
    9 degrees and dry here in South London!
  • PRVW
    The referee is Martin Atkinson for today's clash.
  • PRVW
    Palace just make two alterations from the team which won 0-1 at Newcastle last weekend. Dann replaces Tomkins in defence and Benteke starts instead of Batshuayi.
  • PRVW
    The away side have made a few changes from the side which lost to Spurs on Tuesday, but they have far from rung the changes. In fact, Sane and De Bruyne, who came on as 89th minute substitutes in midweek, start today. Otamendi and Mahrez are on the bench, Delph and Fernandinho miss out and Kompany and Mendy also play.
  • PRVW
    Man City have put out a very strong side despite having a massive CL clash on Wednesday against Spurs. Their team is the following: Ederson (GK); Mendy, Laporte, Kompany, Walker; D Silva, Gundogan, De Bruyne; Sane, Aguero and Sterling.
  • PRVW
    The teams are in so let's get going. Palace XI: Guaita (GK); Van Aanholt, Dann, Kelly, Wan-Bissaka; Schlupp, Milivojevic, Mcarthur; Zaha, Benteke and Townsend.

    Good afternoon and welcome to our live coverage of the Premier League clash between Crystal Palace and Manchester City! The hosts are in mid-table with little to play for (they are 8 points off the final EL spot and 11pts above safety) whereas the away side must win to go back top. It should be exciting!
