Man City have won each of their last 3 PL games against us, the citizens are looking to equal their competition best run of four successive wins against us. We have only won one of our last 8 visits to the Etihad (W1 D1 L6), conceding 23 goals in this period (2.9 per game)
We are looking to become the 1st team since Liverpool in 2008-09 to win away in the league against both Manchester clubs in the same season.
None of Man City's last 25 PL games have ended level, the longest current run in the competition. The citizens have won 21 of those 25 games (L4), including each of the last 9.
No side has won more points in PL games between the "big six" this season than Man City (19), while only Man Utd (6) have won fewer than us (7).
We have lost each of our last four away league games, conceding two goals each time. We last lost more in a row on the road in the top-flight between March-May 2004 under David Pleat (6).
Poch has only tasted victory in 1of his 5 PL trips to the Etihad (W1D1 L3), a 2-1 win in February 2016 against Manuel Pellegrini's Man City.
Man City striker Aguero has failed to score in each of his last 6 PL appearances against us after scoring 10 goals in his first 7. He has scored 19 PL goals for Man City this season - 1 more will see him become just the 2nd player to score 20+ PL goals in 5 consecutive campaigns, after Thierry Henry (between 2001-02 and 2005-06).
We have won all five of our PL games without Kane this season. We last lost without Kane taking part against Man Utd in October 2017.
