However, despite going toe-to-toe with Pep Guardiola’s Citizens, Jesse Marsch’s Whites find themselves two-nil down.

Following Liverpool’s narrow one-nil win against Newcastle United earlier in the day, Manchester City would have known that anything less than all three points would make them title second-favourites.
Although there is still half an hour to play, it certainly looks like the Citizens will be reclaiming their spot at the top of the table.
