Crystal Palace vs Man City live: Visitors look to maintain pressure on Arsenal at the top of the Premier League

Crystal Palace XI: Henderson; Richards, Lacroix, Guehi; Clyne, Wharton, Kamada, Mitchell; Sarr, Pino; Mateta.

Man City XI: Donnarumma; Nunes, Dias, Gvardiol, O’Reilly; Silva, Gonzalez, Foden; Cherki, Haaland, Doku.

Man City appear to have emerged from the Bernabeu win unscathed, with no new injury concerns for Pep Guardiola.

However, this match will come too soon for Rodri, who is expected back later this month, while John Stones and Mateo Kovacic remain sidelined.

Oliver Glasner continues to navigate a minor injury crisis, with at least five players likely to be absent for this weekend.

Daniel Munoz is the most recent addition to the list, with the defender requiring surgery on a knee injury, while Cheick Doucoure and Chadi Riad continue their recovery from ACL injuries. Caleb Kporha and Rio Cardines are still sidelined, with no concrete timelines for their returns.

Palace could be boosted by the return of Ismaila Sarr after he suffered an ankle issue, while Jaydee Canvot could return from illness, though Jean-Philippe Mateta faces a late fitness test after coming off against Fulham due to a minor knee injury.

Coming into today’s match Manchester City cannot afford to drop an points as they sit five points behind the current Premier League leaders Arsenal.

Pep Guardiola’s men have won four of their last five league matches and are in a strong run of form with the re-emergence of Phil Foden and the prolific striking power of Erling Haaland.

City will look to close the gap back to two points and maintain the pressure of the Gunners who know that one slip up could cost them the advantage in the title race.

In comparison, Crystal Palace are also having a fine season and sit fifth in the table before today’s game.

Oliver Glasner’s men have won seven of their 15 matches so far and will jump back into the top four if they were to beat City at home.

The face on Rob Edwards said it all as he applauded the Wolves supporters at the Emirates. The Premier League’s bottom side were moments away from just a third point of the season, away at the leaders, only to be denied as a second own goal of the night consigned themselves to a ninth straight defeat.

There was pride at how Wolves had scrapped and fought and ultimately hauled themselves level with Tolu Arokodare’s stoppage-time header. But there was pain, so much pain, at the sight of Yerson Mosquera glancing Bukayo Saka’s cross into his own net and the Wolves players collapsing to the turf as if the strings had been cut from them.

Viewers in the UK can watch the match live on Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage starting at 12.30pm. Subscribers can also stream the action online via NOWTV.

The match is scheduled to take place on Sunday, 14 December at Selhurst Park, with kick-off set for 2pm GMT.

The visitors come to the capital looking to maintain the pressure on Arsenal at the top of the table.

City have impressed lately after a mixed start to the season, with Pep Guardiola’s side starting the weekend just two points behind Arsenal, and the visitors come into the match off the back of a great performance in their 2-1 win over Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in midweek.

However, Palace have produced their own solid start to the new season, with Oliver Glasner‘s side sitting fourth in the table ahead of this weekend’s fixtures.
