Manchester City have the title race in their hands, but they ought to victoriously past the two Premier League games in hand, with the first coming tonight at Brighton.City’s boss, Pep Guardiola, does not expect they face a tougher match in their six remaining than this one against Roberto De Zerbi’s slot.##NAJAVA_MECA_8056179##Guardiola’s admiration for his Brighton counterpart has grown, and the defending champion will have to do their best to leave the South Coast with three points.”They have been occupying my mind, trying to figure out how they are,” said Guardiola. “They have one week or ten days to prepare that game so I know with Roberto how professional he is and he will use all the details to find all the weakness spots that we can have and it will be really tough.”They’ll test us in ways we are not used to. At that moment, we have to be strong and patient while at the same time making them uncomfortable – so it might be the toughest. I’m not saying the other ones are not – because, of course, imagine Spurs away or Fulham away – but for the way they play it will be so difficult and we have to be ready.”##EDITORS_CHOICE##Guardiola made headlines after Saturday’s FA Cup win over Chelsea when he used his media appearances to slam the decision not to play the game a day later. The manager is still expecting his players to ‘fall down’ but is relishing a big month ahead as they go for two more titles.”Even with the problems we have, that every club has, we are still there, so we’d like to extend it by a week, tomorrow will be one month exactly before the end of the season, just four weeks,” he said. “Tomorrow is 25th and in the 25th of [May] we play the FA Cup final against United. So we’ll do everything we have. I don’t know how much it is, but we’ll try,” concluded he.PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 29TuesdayArsenal – Chelsea 5-0 (1-0)/Trossard 4, White 52, 70, Havertz 57, 65/WednesdayWolverhampton – Bournemouth 0-1 (0-1)/Semenyo 37/Man.
