"Manchester City will look to move back within two points of leaders Arsenal when they visit Leeds United. Pep Guardiola's players were made to work extremely hard for their 2-1 win at home to Newcastle United last Saturday, which briefly cut the gap at the top of the table. Arsenal quickly extended it back to five - having played a game more - with an emphatic 4-1 victory in the North London derby at Tottenham."
"Leeds have lost each of their last five Premier League games against City, having lost just four of their first 16 against them in the competition (W7 D5). City have won their last two away league games against Leeds - only once have they won three consecutively, doing so in their first three visits to Elland Road between 1924 and 1928."
"Since the start of December, Leeds have drawn more games than any other Premier League side (8), with the Whites going 1-0 ahead in three of their last four draws, which all ended 1-1. A trip to Elland Road is no easy assignment, with Leeds losing once at home since November."
Manchester City travels to Leeds United in a Premier League match aimed at reducing Arsenal's five-point lead at the top of the table. City secured a 2-1 victory against Newcastle last Saturday, though Arsenal subsequently extended their advantage with a 4-1 win over Tottenham. Leeds present a challenging opponent, having lost only once at home since November. Historically, City have dominated recent encounters, winning their last two away league games against Leeds. However, Leeds have drawn more games than any other Premier League side since December, frequently taking early leads before drawing 1-1. The match kicks off at 17:30 GMT on Saturday and is broadcast on Sky Sports.
