Man City should be worried about Crystal Palace clash - Bannan

Crystal Palace midfielder Barry Bannan has implored Manchester City to come prepared for the weekend's trip to Selhurst Park.

The Eagles host third-placed City on Sunday with the visitors still in with a chance of clinching this season's Premier League title following their 3-1 win over West Bromwich Albion on Monday night.

City are six points behind league leaders Liverpool with a game in hand but they will have to take on a Palace outfit who are full of confidence after winning their past five league fixtures.

When asked if City should be worried about their trip to south London, Bannan told Sky Sports News: "They should definitely.

"We're on a five-game winning run at the minute and we've played some very good teams in amongst there as well.

"Obviously we're safe now as well - we're playing without any fear and I think for any team coming here to Palace they won't be looking forward to it.

"Confidence is high and we can't wait to play the game."
