Quotes
 
“To be honest it’s not the moment to look at that. It’s been a hard period. We have to accept the challenge," City manager Pep Guardiola said after his side's win over Forest.
 
"The Premier League is getting harder and harder. We know that everybody is becoming a really tough team to play. Everybody is taking points off everybody. We have to improve as a team first.
 
"Try to win games and we’ll see in a couple of months where we are. “Hopefully we will have improved a bit and we get a bit closer. For the moment, it is not the time.”
 
Head-to-Head
 
City claimed a 4-2 win over Palace in their last meeting in the Premier League which was on 6 April at Selhurst Park.
 
As a result, the Citizens are unbeaten in their last five league matches against the Eagles having registered three wins and two draws.
