Manchester City are just one game away from being crowned Premier Leagues for the fourth time as they face Brighton on Sunday morning.

City are on 95 points; one above Liverpool and will be champions with a win, or if Liverpool drop points.

Pep Guardiola’s side have won 13 Premier League games in a row after last week’s big 1-0 win over Leicester City thanks to captain Vincent Kompany’s wonder strike.

Brighton are 17th and have been confirmed safe after Cardiff’s loss to Crystal Palace and could finish 16th with a win.

The Seagulls are winless in 10 games across all competitions and are coming off a 1-1 draw with Arsenal.

The sides have met four times with City winning all of them; when they last traveled to the AMEX Stadium it was a 2-0 win.

Team news

Jose Izquierdo and Davy Propper will miss the game with injuries, while Bruno is playing his last game for the club after signing in 2012 and making 224 appearances for the club.

Fernandinho and Benjamin Mendy are injured while Kevin De Bruyne is nearing his return.

Kickoff is at 10 a.m. EDT on Sunday morning at the American Express Stadium in Brighton. The game will be televised in Canada across the Sportsnet network.
