Leeds United will look to keep their Premier League dreams alive when they host reigning champions Manchester City.
The Yorkshire club have the unenviable task of taking on a motivated and dangerous Pep Guardiola side.
The Whites last beat a reigning Premier League champion in 1999, but they’ll be buoyed by Crysencio Summerville’s two back-to-back stoppage-time winners against Liverpool and Bournemouth before the break.
However, morale took a hit with their defeat to Tottenham Hotspur pre-break, leaving them in 15th place and potentially at risk of entering into a relegation battle should any more slip-ups occur.
On the other hand, Manchester City seek to reclaim their second spot after Newcastle United’s win against Leicester City caused them to drop down to third.
With Arsenal also emerging victorious over West Ham United in their return match, Guardiola’s men trail by 8 points at the top and need maximum points here if they wish to maintain momentum going forward into January.
