City, who returned to the top of the Premier League table with a 3-0 win over West Ham on Wednesday, can move four points clear of Arsenal with a victory over Leeds on Saturday.

Leeds appointed Sam Allardyce as manager this week, as the Yorkshire club battle to stay in the top-flight and avoid the drop.

Erling Haaland broke the record for the most goals in a single Premier League campaign in midweek, surpassing Alan Shearer and Andy Cole with his 35th league goal.
