Hello and welcome to Eurosport's coverage of the Premier League match between Manchester City and Crystal Palace. I'm Ciaran Baynes and I'll be following the match with you.

Zaha a real handful for Dias for City. he does not look his usual composed self.

Foden's corner eventually reaches Rodri who fires at goal first time but it is straight at Guaita who holds his effort.

Cancelo gets into the box where is always dangerous and turns inside Ward before going back outside and seeing the full back block his attempted centre.

A few not so niceties after Jesus pushed over Zaha, just a word to both the players from the official.

City with a lot of ball in the Palace half but not carving out chances yet.

De Bruyne won the ball 25 yards from goal and drove towards the box but was denied by a good challenge from Andersen.

GOAL FOR PALACE! Their first attack, Zaha won the ball then played the ball to Gallagher who drove at the heart of the City defence and then played it back into the left hand side of the area to Zaha and though he did not get the best contact he angled his effort wide of Ederson and into the net.

Interesting ball from Cancelo into the box, Jesus did not read it or he may have had an effort on goal.

Palace get the game underway...

The bugels have blown, now we're ready to kick off.

As would be expected, the results between these sides have been pretty one sided with City winning four and drawing one of the last five, since Palace won 3-2 at the Etihad Stadium just before Christmas three years ago.

And what a rare defeat it was for the Citizens in that competition.

City smashed Palace's rivals Brighton on the south coast last week though had their spirits dented a little with a League Cup exit at the hands of West Ham in midweek, albeit with a largely second-string xi.

As you'd expect, Palace are massive underdogs going into the match at around 18/1, while City are at best a 1/6 shot. The draw is 8/1, not the worst price given the form of the Eagles.

Palace have made three changes from the side which was held by Newcastle at home last weekend. Wilfried Zaha returns to the side, meaning Odsonne Eduoard plays through the middle and Christian Benteke drops to the bench alongside Michael Olise, with Jordan Ayew favoured on the right flank. In midfield, Cheikyou Kouyate is preferred to Luka Mikivojevic.

So you'd have to say a full-strength CIty side chosen by Guardiola, with Gabriel Jesus starting on the right flank, Phil Foden in the false nine position and Jack Grealish on the left.

Theses are the Eagles who will face the league champions in a little under an hour...

This is how Pep Guardiola's side will line up...
