5 things to watch out for in the Premier League this weekend

#4 Manchester City; ruthless and relentless

City are genuine title contenders under Guardiola

Manchester City have done almost all things right so far this season. Guardiola’s men have dropped just two points, overall, and are also the only unbeaten side in the league.

They have been equally impressive in Europe, a feat which has been hard to achieve for City in recent years, and have already ensured qualification to the knockout stages of the Champions League in record time.

The Citizens showed no signs of stopping heading into the international break and will be looking to pick up from where they left off when they take on Leicester at the King Power Stadium, on Saturday.

This particular fixture last year sent shock waves among the City faithful when they were beaten 4-2 by the Foxes thanks to a Jamie Vardy hat-trick. City were outplayed on the night and have remarkably addressed their defensive problems by spending £150 million in the summer.

Despite the visitors being in tremendous form, Claude Puel’s Leicester, who are unbeaten under the manager, will be looking to take advantage of the absence of Nicolas Otamendi, a player who has been a key figure in City’s back line this season, after he picked up his fifth yellow card of the season against Arsenal which has resulted in an automatic suspension.

Sergio Aguero, the club’s joint top-scorer this season with 10 goals in 12 appearances, will be available for selection despite suffering a dizzy spell at half-time while on international duty with Argentina.
