Pep Guardiola’s men have already been confirmed as champions so a victory this weekend would be the perfect way to round off a fantastic week.
It is not going to be an easy task though as they come up against a Swans side still battling for survival in the Premier League.

What time is it?
The match kicks off on Sunday at 4:30pm.
Where can I watch it?
The game will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Premier League and Main Event.
It’s a big game for…
Swansea. Currently sitting five points clear of the relegation zone, Carlos Carvalhal’s men could extend the gap between themselves and the drop zone if they take anything from the game.
Also, with both Stoke City and Southampton not in Premier League action this weekend, it could be a real opportunity to ramp up the pressure.
Best stat…
Swansea have lost their last three games at the Etihad Stadium by the same scoreline. The Welsh outfit have fallen to a 2-1 defeat on each of their last three visits to face the Citizens.
Player to watch…
Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian has returned from injury in great form. The 21-year-old has netted three goals in his last four games in all competitions. He also scored two in the 2-1 home win over the Swans last season.
Form Guide…
Manchester City: WWLLLW
Swansea: WDLLDD
86: Well there's about three Manchester City players who are through on goal. The ball is bouncing and Vincent Kompany, of all people, takes down the bouncing ball then tries to flick it up and head it in. He had two players to his right and you feel a more natural finisher will have done better.
Manchester City 5-0 Swansea
Gabriel Jesus
89: He's been trying all afternoon but now he's finally got his goal. A beautifully weighted pass from Yaya Toure finds the head of Jesus who guides the ball into the left corner of the net with his head.
Well that was more of a procession that a competitive game of football and Swansea were only there to make up the numbers at Manchester City's title party.
David Silva and Raheem Sterling's first half strikes got the ball rolling then Kevin De Bruyne scored the goals with a beautiful effort from range.
Gabriel Jesus' saved penalty was turned in by Bernardo Silva but the Brazilian made up for the miss with a headed goal late on.
Manchester City fans take to the pitch to celebrate with their title winning team
