Premier League WK-27 Preview
Manchester City will try to keep the pressure on Premier League leader Arsenal when it plays at Crystal Palace. Second-placed City is five points off the lead and faces a Palace team that hasn’t won since New Year’s Eve.
Suddenly surging Liverpool can bolster its top-four bid in the early kickoff at last-placed Bournemouth. Jurgen Klopp’s team has four wins in its five-game league unbeaten run — all clean sheets — and is up to fifth place, three points behind Tottenham.
Everything clicked in Liverpool’s 7-0 rout of Manchester United last weekend. Tottenham, eliminated from the Champions League last 16 on Wednesday by AC Milan, will host Nottingham Forest amid reports Spurs manager Antonio Conte may be on his way out.
Chelsea will go for three wins in a row at Leicester. Leeds is one spot above the relegation zone and hosts a Brighton team that is contending for a European spot. Brentford takes its 12-game league unbeaten run to relegation-threatened Everton.
