Manchester City claimed a home victory in their previous league game. A 3-0 triumph against Crystal Palace at Etihad Stadium made it back-to-back Premier League wins. The Citizens enjoyed an impressive 72% of possession and managed four shots on goal, while Antoine Semenyo, Omar Marmoush and Savinho were on the scoresheet.

Three days ago, City landed a 1-0 win against Chelsea in the FA Cup at Wembley.
