Goodbye and goodnight

That's quite enough 'excitement' for one evening, but you can blame Chelsea for that. One more match to come in this round of fixtures as Jose Mourinho's Manchester United visit Crystal Palace. 

Read our preview for that one below. It'll help you through your Monday. Seriously.

Cheerio!

Four more wins to go at most for City

Manchester City have restored their barmy, 18-point lead at the top of the Premier League with a straightforward win over the reigning champions.

Chelsea seldom threatened and Pep Guardiola's side had to be patient, but they did enough to continue their march towards the EPL crown.

The Blues, meanwhile, have lost four out of their last five in the league and four on the bounce away from home for the first time in 14 years.

City have Champions League action to come against FC Basel in the week.

Antonio Conte's side have a week of soul-searching to do before playing Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge next Saturday.

Manchester City win

That's it! Marcos Alonso managed a late scare with a left-footed shot, but City are home and hosed in the Manchester drizzle.

Youth prospect alert!

90 + 3' David Silva strides off, to be replaced by English starlet Phil Foden. He'll have about 70 seconds to make an impact.

Eden Hazard is coming off

90' The sulking Belgian marches straight past boss Conte on his way to the bench after being substituted. It's been a miserable evening for the star that Chelsea are trying to encourage to sign a new contract.

... and another

87' Zinchenko's night is done, as Danilo comes on to see out the last few minutes.

And a sub for City

85' Sergio Aguero fails to score for the first time in seven home games as Pep whips him off. He's replaced by Gabriel Jesus, who makes his return from injury.

Another Chelsea substitution

82' Emerson Palmieri is coming on for Pedro, who hasn't been at the races tonight.

It's a league debut for the Brazilian-Italian.

Corner for Chelsea!

81' But Cesc Fabregas' effort doesn't even beat the first man. And right in front of the traveling fans as well.

Giroud is on for Willian

78' Chelsea finally make their first substitution and it's the former Arsenal man who sticks on his shin pads and jogs out for just over ten minutes of action. About time too.
