Man City suffered a shock defeat at the hands of Wolves during their previous Premier League game which now means, the Citizens are currently eight points adrift the top spot on the table.
Next up the defending Champions hit the road as they take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park next Saturday.
Unlike other seasons, the Eagles have made a pretty fine start to their new season and right they are sitting in sixth spot having won 4 out of their first 8 matches in the Premier League.
On paper, this shouldn’t be much of a challenge for Pep Guardiola’s men but Palace have not tasted defeat during their past three league matches and have also picked up points against the likes of Wolves and Man United.
