Manchester City host Brighton and Hove Albion looking to keep pace at the top of the Premier League.

City will move into the top four with a win, and keep the pressure on champions Liverpool and new leaders Manchester United, following their win at Burnley on Tuesday.

"We feel that we have improved, certainly performance-wise, results-wise we haven't," Brighton manager Graham Potter said. "That's the challenge for us, we have to improve that.

"Performance-wise we have got better, funnily enough the game at the Etihad last season we were quite satisfied with, even though the scoreline was 4-0.

"It's a fantastic challenge, they're one of the best teams in European football. What better way than to play against that sort of opposition?"

Here is everything you need to know.
