Manchester City will look to build on last weekend's Manchester derby triumph when they welcome Bournemouth to the Etihad Stadium for a Premier League encounter on Saturday afternoon.
The Citizens cruised to a comprehensive 3-0 victory against rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford last weekend. Having won each of their last two games in Premier League since October's international break, Manchester City are starting to assert their authority on the Premier League title race.
The hosts will now look to close the two-point gap that separates them in third from current top-flight leaders Tottenham Hotspur as another international break looms.
Bournemouth, meanwhile, finally picked up their first win in the Premier League this season when they came from behind to beat fellow relegation contenders Burnley last weekend.
The Cherries were, however, ousted from the EFL Cup by Liverpool in midweek in what was a narrow 2-1 defeat, and this game against the defending champions could also be viewed largely a free-hit given they have only picked up one point on the road this season.
