- 90'+3'Crystal Palace hit the road as they visit the Emirates next weekend, while Manchester City return home for two dates with Spurs in a four-day span. That's all for our live coverage, thanks for following along. Goodbye!
- 90'+3'FULL-TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 1-3 MANCHESTER CITY.
- 90'+1'There will be a minimum of three minutes added on at the end of this match, which are nothing more than a formality now.
- 90'It's a second assist of the match for De Bruyne, who did well to wait until the last possible second to slip Jesus through.
- 90'CITY ARE GOING TOP OF THE PREMIER LEAGUE! Jesus restores their two-goal lead as he's played through on the end of De Bruyne's throughball and finishes confidently to make it 3-1. Surely that's job done now. There was a hint of offside in it, but the linesman's flag stayed down.
- 87'City selling out in defence here as Stones is brought on with their final change, at the expense of Sane.
- 85'A second City change sees Sako come on in place of McArthur, as Batshuayi remains on the bench.
- 83'Might there be a late twist in the tale now?! This has an eerily similar feeling to Palace's match against Liverpool in May 2014 at Selhurst Park in which the Reds were comfortably ahead 3-0 in the 79th minute before an improbable and unprecedented comeback from the hosts in the final 11 minutes earned them a draw, severely damaging Liverpool's title hopes.
- 81'GAME ON! Palace cut the deficit in half! It's 2-1 and suddenly Selhurst Park has come to life, as Milivojevic drives his free-kick in at the far post, around the wall with ease! That looked almost too easy for him!
- 80'A real chance for Palace as Gundogan trips up McArthur on the very edge of the penalty area, affording the hosts a free-kick in an incredibly threatening area. It might almost be too close to goal, even.
- 77'City make their first change of the match as Meyer returns after missing last weekend's victory with an illness. Townsend is the one to give way.
- 75'Aguero's race is run as the striker gives way for Jesus with City's second change of the match.
- 73'City have weathered the mild storm and are back to their suffocating selves on the ball. Unless Palace fully commit and throw caution to the wind, it looks as though this match is in for a routine finish.
- 71'Where was this all game? Palace have waited too long to show some confidence on the ball. They remain camped out in attack, putting the pressure on the City defence for the first time today. This is the initiative that they needed from the off. It seems too little, too late now.
- 69'Palace have responded well to going two goals down, as they enjoy their longest attacking spell of the afternoon. They do their best Man City impression as they pass the ball around on the fringes of the final third, but there's no end product to speak of.
- 65'A first change of the night for either side sees City bring Bernardo Silva on, at the expense of David Silva.
- 63'Great vision from Sane not to just try and force a shot through a crowd, but instead pick out Sterling in space as he's credited with the assist.
- 63'THAT SHOULD DO IT! City lead 2-0 and that's likely them out of sight. David Silva picks out Sane with a clever pull-back, and the winger drags an inviting delivery across goal for Sterling, who guides a sublime first-time finish back across Guaita and in at the far post.
- 62'Lashed over! A wild effort from Gundogan ends another lengthy spell of City possession, as he skies a strike from just under 25 yards on the end of a clever layoff from De Bruyne.
- 60'The tempo has been quite poor in this second half, and much of that can be attributed to the fact that Palace continue to struggle to get the ball forward. They've had no success keeping possession when they win it back, and that's an even bigger problem when considering the fact that they're hardly winning it back wiith much regularity to begin with.
- 58'Plenty of possession still for City, but Palace don't appear all that bothered in defence. They're doing well to keep their shape and not get drawn out of position by City's endless passing.
- 54'OUCH! Kelly slides to break up a Sane cross, and takes it square in the groin. That's certainly a painful one for the centre-back, who stays down and needs a minute to collect himself.
- 52'A roar of approval from the Palace fans as they enjoy a decent spell in attack. A cross in from Townsend puts some pressure on City as Walker and Ederson get their signals crossed. Nothing comes of it in the end, but these supporters have had little to cheer about thus far.
- 50'It's been a relatively tame start to this second half with neither side showing any urgency of yet. It looks like both need to settle into a bit of a rhythm.
- 48'An early test for Guaita who has to be alert as De Bruyne's ball in creeps under David Silva before being turned goalwards by an unsuspecting Kelly. The Palace keeper did well to stick with it and make a comfortable save in the end.
- 46'Palace get the second half underway...
- 45'+2'Palace have really struggled to generate anything on the front foot and could do with a change in formation. Bringing on Batshuayi to play off Benteke would really help the striker's cause - he's been on an island through 45 minutes. They could bring off McArthur to make that happen, switching to a slightly more adventurous 4-4-2, instead of packing everyone into midfield like they've done so far.
- 45'+2'HALF-TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-1 MANCHESTER CITY.
- 45'There will be a minimum of two minutes added on at the end of this first half.
- 42'Into the final minutes of this half and Palace will be keen to get this into the break without conceding a second. At that point they can reevaluate things and come out with a revamped gameplan in the second half. They might as well get after it, as they really have nothing to lose.
- 40'Crystal Palace have won just 41 per cent of their Premier League points in home games this season (16/39), the lowest such ratio in the division.
- 38'City break threateningly as Palace are caught with a few men forward for one of the first times this afternoon, but David Silva's ball just eludes Aguero at the far post as the hosts are let off the hook.
- 36'More of the same here with City passing the ball around just inside the attacking half, in no rush to get forward. Palace are making this far too comfortable for them, as a result of their reluctance to press with any intensity to win back possession.
- 34'Palace need to find some more consistency. They've struggled to get the ball forward with any regularity when they win it back, as City have been able to play the majority of this first half on their own terms. It's been quite straightforward from the visitors thus far.
- 28'A long ball over the top from Laporte isn't dealt with by Palace, as the ball is knocked into the path of Gundogan, who tees up Aguero. The striker turns and lets fly from the edge of the penalty area, but he can't pick out the top corner.
- 26'Suffocating stuff from City in possession here, as they knock the ball around in the attacking half, with Palace dropping off in their defensive shell. It's all very straightforward for City, who aren't being pressed or rushed in the slightest.
- 24'That's exactly what City needed to help them relax a bit. Sterling's earlier miss will have had them a bit unsettled, but they will be breathing a lot easier now. That being said, they also opened the scoring in that 3-2 defeat to Palace at the Etihad earlier this season, so they won't be taking their foot off the gas anytime soon.
- 22'Kouyate replaces the injured Schlupp in a straight swap in midfield.
- 15'De Bruyne's pass made it through two lines of defence for Palace, as he provides a terrific assist.
- 15'CITY HAVE THEIR BREAKTHROUGH! Sterling doesn't miss this time, and it's 1-0! De Bruyne carves Palace apart with a delightful throughball from 40 yards out to play Sterling through on goal after Palace squandered a free-kick. Sterling takes it in stride and lifts an exquisite finish over Guaita to open the scoring!
- 14'There's a good intent about this match, with City not just suffocating the tempo with a patient approach in possession. The visitors are quick to try and pick out that incisive ball, which has helped the match adopt an entertaining pace.
- 12'At the other end, Benteke has found himself on an island in the early going. He's got no support when the ball comes his way, with the likes of Zaha and Townsend hesitant to get forward.
- 9'City have settled in and are dominating possession now, much like they did in the defeat to Palace at the Etihad, where the visitors saw just 22 per cent of the ball. This match should follow a similar pattern, but it's a matter of what can City do with it.
- 5'Perhaps somewhat inspired by Townsend's worldie in the reverse fixture at the Etihad, it seems as though Palace have their shooting boots on early. The crowd clamours for a shot when Schlupp picks up the ball 25 yards out, but he opts not to. Milivojevic does try his luck moments later though, from a similar distance, lifting a strike over the bar.
- 3'Wasted opportunity for David Silva who finds himself on the receiving end of a lovely pass in from De Bruyne on the right. The Spaniard takes it in space, about eight yards from goal, but almost seems to be taken by surprise as he turns and loses control, before his poked attempt to lay it off is intercepted and the danger is averted.
- 1'AND THEY'RE OFF! Manchester City in their sky blue kits as they get the match underway at Selhurst Park, with Crystal Palace in red and blue.
- 0'SUBS: Gabriel Jesus, Arjanet Muric, Bernardo Silva, Danilo, Nicolas Otamendi, Riyad Mahrez, John Stones.

- 0'Add in the fact that a Champions League date with Spurs looms large for Man City on Wednesday night, and it would appear all the ingredients are there for Palace to spring a shock on the Citizens and their hopes of retaining the title. Only time will tell.
- 0'As a result, Manchester City should take nothing for granted today at Selhurst Park, a venue where title hopes have gone to die in recent memory. Liverpool squandered a 3-0 lead in the final 11 minutes to severely dent their title charge in May 2014, while City endured an even greater blow in a 2-1 defeat at the ground in April 2015.
- 0'Andros Townsend struck an immaculate volley in this season’s reverse fixture as Crystal Palace became – and remain – the only Premier League side to win at the Etihad this season, which should give them heaps of confidence as they welcome the defending champions to their home.
- 0'All eyes are on the Premier League title race today with Manchester City at Selhurst Park and Liverpool at home to Chelsea later in the day – the Reds two points up on the Citizens at the start of play today, though Pep Guardiola’s side have a game in hand.
