Manchester City v Crystal Palace (Premier League)

Coverage of the top-flight match at Etihad Stadium. Erling Haaland scored twice and Phil Foden claimed another in a 3-0 victory for the Citizens when these teams faced each other in the reverse fixture at Selhurst Park last December, but the match wasn't quite as one-sided as the scoreline suggests, with Yeremy Pino and Adam Wharton both hitting the woodwork for Palace

City are looking to win a domestic treble, having already won the League Cup, but they lost to Palace 1-0 in last term's final and briefly looked to be heading out of the competition in the semi-finals this time around, before late goals by Tijjani Reijnders and Jeremy Doku gave them a 2-1 win over Southampton.
