THE TEAM NEWS
MAN CITY
- Manchester City were at their attacking best as they tore Aston Villa to shreds and put six past them but it could have been more.
- The front three all scored in last week's game but it was Sergio Aguero who stole the headlines as he scored a hat-trick.
- Raheem Sterling was left on the bench last week but is likely to come back in here with Gabriel Jesus the most at risk of losing his spot.
Predicted line-up (4-3-3): Ederson; Walker, Stones, Fernandinho, Mendy; De Bruyne, Rodri, David Silva; Sterling, Aguero, Mahrez
Unavailable: Sane (Injured), Laporte (Injured)
Doubtful:
CRYSTAL PALACE
- Crystal Palace earned a point at home to Arsenal but will perhaps be disappointed that they did not take all three against the Gunners.
- Arsenal were reduced to 10 men in the second half but Palace were unable to capitalise as they drew for a third straight league game.
- Roy Hodgson's side continue to be blighted by injury and they look set to be without Max Meyer after he was injured in last week's contest.
Predicted line-up (4-5-1): Guaita; Kelly, Tomkins, Cahill, Riedewald; Ayew, Kouyate, McCarthy, McArthur, Zaha; Tosun
Unavailable: Ward (Injured), Van Aanholt (Injured), Schlupp (Injured), Townsend (Injured), Dann (Injured), Sakho (Injured), Benteke (Injured), Milivojevic (Suspended), Meyer (Injured)
Doubtful: Ward (Injured)
THE PREDICTION
Manchester City were in brilliant form as they put six past Aston Villa last week. They return to the Etihad to take on an injury-hit Crystal Palace side and although the visitors have shown some resolve to draw their last three, Man City are likely to be too good for them in this one.
