What is at stake for Manchester City and Brentford?

Man City's title hopes took a major dent with the 3-3 draw to Everton, meaning they trail the leaders by five points - albeit with the chance to close that gap to two points with a win in their game in hand. 

Guardiola's side will be keen to avoid dropping any further points during the run-in to keep the pressure on Arsenal, while ensuring they are in the position to capitalise on any potential slip-ups from the Gunners. 

Meanwhile, Brentford are fighting to achieve their dream of a miraculous European qualification, and a win on Saturday could lift them to sixth in the standings depending on Bournemouth's result against Fulham earlier in the day.
