Crunch clash for City
By Harry Bamforth
It feels like it is now or never for Manchester City. Pep Guardiola's side simply can't afford to drop any more points in this Premier League title race, if they are to come away from this rollercoaster of a season as champions. While they came from behind to snatch a point at Everton on Monday night, it still felt very much like two points lost, rather than one gained. It left them five points behind leaders Arsenal, with just one game in hand. All of a sudden, they are chasing again.
That chase restarts here at the Etihad, as they take on European-chasing Brentford, looking to close the gap back down to just two points. To say this is a massive evening for Guardiola and his side is certainly an understatement. It's what we call a must-win. Now, that's enough of an intro, let's get this show on the road.
