Manchester City take on Leeds United today determined to end their run of two straight defeats with a victory to reignite their Premier League title hopes.

Pep Guardiola’s side were beaten 2-1 by Newcastle United last weekend, on their return to league action after the international break, and followed that disappointment with a first Champions League defeat this season as Bayer Leverkusen saw off a much-changed City XI.

Leeds could now face a reaction as Erling Haaland, Jeremy Doku and Phil Foden return to the starting line-up. Daniel Farke’s side have one win and five defeats in their past six league games, a run that has seen them slump into the relegation zone, and face a huge task at the Etihad Stadium.
