Match Preview

Jeremy Doku's last-gasp stunner might have salvaged Manchester City's unbeaten run at Everton, but it crucially saw them drop points in the title race.

Pep Guardiola's side are five points behind leaders Arsenal with a game in hand and most likely need to win their four remaining games to have any chance of catching the Gunners.

Brentford finally ended their two-month wait for a victory against West Ham and did so in style after recording their biggest Premier League win since January.

The Bees have lost five of their last six meetings in all competitions against City, including twice this season.
