HOW THE TABLE LOOKS
So Manchester City are now four points clear at the top of the table, but they have played one more game than Liverpool. If either Pep Guardiola's side or the Reds win all their remaining games, they lift the title
BIG STAT
Manchester City drew 0-0 with Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League this week, meaning they've now drawn back-to-back games 0-0 for the first time since March 2016
FULL TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-0 MANCHESTER CITY
And there goes the final whistle! A huge roar from the Palace fans greets the conclusion of the game. Their team defending heroically throughout, but City will certainly feel like this is two points dropped given the chances they had
MAHREZ HEADS TOO CLOSE TO THE 'KEEPER
A deep cross is met by the winger at the back post, but Guaita claims his knock-down. Five minutes of added time, by the way
GALLAGHER BLAZES OVER
Gallagher tirelessly works to win the ball and then hooks over the bar from a nasty angle
LAPORTE HAS TO SCORE
A stunning delivery with the free-kick from de Bruyne, picking out Laporte who has the goal at his mercy but mistimes his header and nods straight into a Palace defender from close range.
YELLOW TO EDOUARD
The substitute makes no attempt to play the ball as he crashes into Kyle Walker, picking up a caution for his troubles
Yellow card
O. Edouard
PALACE PARTY POOPERS AGAIN?
We're entering the final couple of minutes and this is familiar territory for Palace. They took crucial points off Liverpool in the 2014 title race with a 3-3 draw at Selhurst Park, and could be about to do the same to City
EDERSON SAVES FROM ZAHA
We've seen more attacking threat from Palace in the last two minutes than the rest of the second half, but Zaha can only shoot straight at the 'keeper after turning on the edge of the box
ANOTHER NAME IN THE BOOK
Gallagher gets a yellow card for a dubious foul on Cancelo
Yellow card
C. Gallagher
RARE PALACE CHANCE!
Edouard is picked out on the edge of the box but he cuts in field instead of shooting with his left and gets closed down.
GREALISH SHOT BLOCKED
Again, Palace throw bodies in front of the ball as Grealish has a 18-yard shot blocked out for a corner
CITY STICKING TO THEIR GUNS
At times it does look like the visitors are trying to pass it into the back of the net. They're getting frustrated with how long Palace are taking over dead balls, but they seem in no rush when the ball is in play
RODRI IN TROUBLE
Well that is silly from the City midfielder. Kouyate goes down after being caught by de Bruyne, and Rodri runs straight over to him to pick him up. Lucky to escape without a booking
SILVA MISSES!
It's another glorious chance for the visitors. Grealish finds space on the right hand side of the area and he crosses for Bernardo Silva, who just needs to prod into the empty net - except he can't get enough of a contact and the ball skids wide
TIME FOR THE CAVALRY?
City have got plenty of options on the bench, including Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus. When will Guardiola decide to shake things up?
CITY NOT MAKING THEIR DOMINANCE COUNT
Palace are just seconds away from shouting 'can we have our ball back please' here, but City have got absolutely nothing to show for their dominance in possession
FODEN GETTING INVOLVED
He may have been quite in the first half, but Foden has been much more lively since the break. He delightful clipped pass nearly picks out de Bruyne, only for Guiata to quickly pounce off his line
DOUBLE CHANGE FOR PALACE
Vieira reaches for his substitute's bench first. Odsonne Edouard is on, replacing Olise, whilst is Jean-Phillipe Mateta withdrawn for Jordan Ayew

O. Edouard
Off
