  1. 'Man City and Liverpool have raised bar'published at 13:16 British Summer Time 10 April 2022

    Man City v Liverpool (16:30 BST)

    Watch Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola and Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp preview today's Premier League match between the top two teams in English football.

  2. 'Pep is the best coach in the world'published at 13:12 British Summer Time 10 April 2022

    Man City v Liverpool (16:30 BST)

    In the lead-up to the game, Pep Guardiola said he can't stand Jurgen Klopp, while Klopp said Guardiola is a voyeur.

    Well, not quite. It's all been very cordial in the build-up.

    Klopp's record against Guardiola is the best of any of his contemporaries, winning nine and drawing four of their 22 encounters in the Premier League and previously in the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich respectively.

    Even so, Liverpool are winless in four Premier League games against City, while City have lost just one of their past 12 top-flight home matches against the Reds.

    Klopp admits he will not be sad to see the back of Guardiola when he finally retires.

    "I will not miss it, I know that," he said.

    "All I say about City I really mean. Pep is the best coach in the world, no problem with that, but I always wanted to be the coach of the team who can beat the best team in the world.

    "Actually I achieved that as well somehow and now we have to make sure Sunday is the day."

    Man City v Liverpool (16:30 BST)

    TableImage source, .

    This is Ali v Frazier, it's Fury v Joshua, it's a heavyweight clash, it is absolute huge and we're expecting a slobberknocker.

    Pep Guardiola's leaders start on 73 points - one ahead of the Reds - with just seven games left after this weekend.

    While Liverpool arrive in Manchester on the back of a 10-match winning run in the top flight, City - who are going for a fourth title in five seasons - have dropped five points in their past five games since winning 4-0 at Norwich on 12 February.

    Victory for the Reds would see them finish a day top of the table for the first time since 1 October.

    Of the last eight Premier League meetings between the top two sides to take place within the final 10 games of the season, the team in second has won seven times, including each of the past five in a row.

  4. Team news - Leicester shuffle the packpublished at 13:04 British Summer Time 10 April 2022

    Leicester v Crystal Palace (14:00 BST)

    Leicester teamImage source, .

    Leicester make seven changes from the side that drew 0-0 with PSV Eindhoven in the Europa Conference League. It seems Brendan Rodgers is keeping some faces fresh for the return leg next week.

    The players switched out are Jonny Evans, Ricardo Pereira, Timothy Castagne, Wesley Fofana, Marc Albrighton, Harvey Barnes and Kelechi Iheanacho.

    Only Kasper Schmeichel, Youri Tielemans, James Maddison and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall keep their places.

    Leicester XI: Schmeichel, Juston, Soyuncu, Tielemans, Maddison, Amartey, Dewsbury-Hall, Mendy, Daka, Thomas, Lookman.

    Crystal Palace teamImage source, .

    Crystal Palace stick with the same line-up that beat Arsenal 3-0 on Monday.

    Of course they do.

    Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Mitchell, Guehi, Kouyate, Ayew, Zaha, Mateta, Schlupp, Andersen, Clyne, Gallagher.

    Brentford manager Thomas Frank makes two changes to the side which started in the Bees' 4-1 win over Chelsea last weekend.

    Yoane Wissa and Mathias Jorgensen both earn starts, as Mads Roerslev drops to the bench and Pontus Jansson misses out.

    Brentford XI: Raya, Ajer, Jorgensen, Pinnock, Henry, Wissa, Eriksen, Norgaard, Janelt, Mbeumo, Toney.

    West Ham XIImage source, BBC Sport

    Manuel Lanzini starts for West Ham after being involved in a car crash on the way to training last week.

    Vladimir Coufal also comes in for the Hammers in their only other change from their previous league outing - a 2-1 victory over Everton.

    Ryan Fredericks and Said Benrahma, who both played in the midweek Europa League draw against Lyon, drop to the bench.

    West Ham XI: Fabianski, Coufal, Dawson, Zouma, Cresswell, Soucek, Rice, Bowen, Lanzini, Fornals, Antonio.

    One change for Norwich for this must-win relegation scrap.

    Billy Gilmour, who started the 0-0 draw with Brighton last weekend, is not involved due to illness.

    That paves the way for midfielder Kieran Dowell to make his fifth Premier League start of the season.

    Norwich XI: Krul, Byram, Hanley, Gibson, Giannoulis, Normann, Dowell, Lees-Melou, McLean, Pukki, Rashica.

    Substitutes: Aarons, Zimmermann, Rupp, Tzolis, Sorensen, Williams, Gunn, Springett, Rowe.

    Burnley showed real character to come from behind to beat Everton and give themselves a chance of escaping the drop.

    Clarets boss Sean Dyche makes one change to the team that won in midweek as defender Matt Lowton returns to the side in place of Connor Roberts, who drops to the bench.

    Burnley XI: Pope, Lowton, Collins, Tarkowski, Taylor, Lennon, Westwood, Brownhill, Cornet, Rodriguez, Weghorst.

    Substitutes: Cork, Barnes, McNeil, Hennessey, Roberts, Stephens, Vydra, Long, Thomas.
