Manchester City will take on their penultimate home game of the 2025/26 Premier League season on Wednesday night as Crystal Palace visit the North-West.

Oliver Glasner’s players will almost certainly have one eye on their UEFA Europa Conference League clash at the end of the season, but will be conscious of maintaining momentum until their showpiece European final.

As for Manchester City, they will retain a glimmer of hope in the Premier League title race and will want to defeat the Eagles to keep that hope alive, albeit despite Arsenal’s crucial 0-1 win at West Ham on Sunday evening.

That victory for the Gunners moved them five points clear of City having played a game more, with just a home clash against a relegated Burnley remaining, and a trip to Crystal Palace in the game that precedes Glasner’s Conference League final.

Pep Guardiola could look to rotate his options for the meeting with Crystal Palace this week, conscious of the upcoming FA Cup final against Chelsea at Wembley on Saturday afternoon, as they aim to make it a domestic double in the ongoing season.
