Hello and welcome to Eurosport’s digital coverage of the Premier League game between Manchester City and Southampton from the City of Manchester Stadium. It’s a rare thing, but City head into the game on the back of a defeat - a Manchester derby loss to United. They still hold an 11-point lead in the table, but Pep Guardiola will be looking for a response from his side against a Southampton team who snapped a dismal run of form with a win at Sheffield United on Saturday. Kick-off is a 6pm UK time with team news coming right up!

FULL-TIME: Manchester City got back to winning ways following defeat in the Manchester derby and are now 14 points clear at the top of the table. Match report and reaction to follow.
91'
SAVE! Aguero with a brilliant run between two defenders and thunders in a shot that is pushed round the post. He's still got it.
90'
Three minutes of added time to be played
89'
CHANCE! City win possession and move forward at pace. The ball is played out to Bernardo who fires goalwards from 20 yards but the shot flies wide.
85'
DISALLOWED GOAL! Excellent play from Saints who spring forward and Adams curls the ball home, but he was beyond the last defender.
82'
YELLOW! A booking for Fernandinho who clips the heels of Tella who had won possession and was driving forward.

Handbags at dawn as Redmond and Ederson get in a shouting match over what i'm not quite sure. We had a rare sight of a poor touch from the City 'keeper, so maybe Redmond was reminding him that he's not an outfield player
78'
CHANCE! This has the feel of a training exercise now for City who are stringing passes together and springing forward at will. Substitute Torres is presented with a gilt-edged chance after Fernandinho wins the ball, but he drags his shot wide.
72'
SUB! Watts comes on for Armstrong

CHANCE! Saints conjure another chance from a corner as City's defenders get caught under the ball but Stephens heads wide.

GOAL! De Bruyne with the dancing feet to collect a cushioned pass from Foden before curling a low shot beyond McCarthy and into the corner. That Saints revival was short lived.

GOAL! Saints hit back. Awful play from City at the back as they fail to clear their lines and the ball falls to Adams in the box and he lashes home. The look on Pep's face is a picture, but he was the man who made changes at the back.

Southampton break forward at pace. Adams drives towards the box, but Zinchenko's lung-bursting run is rewarded as he gets a toe on the ball and snuffs out the threat.
