Overview

Mark Chapman presents highlights of today's Premier League games, with Liverpool travelling to Swansea, Manchester United hosting Leicester and Southampton at home to Manchester City. Leicester's remarkable form this season has seen them mount an unexpected title challenge. The Foxes have already claimed stunning wins against Manchester City, Tottenham, Liverpool and Chelsea this term, so they will fancy their chances of securing a first win away to the Red Devils since 1998. Manchester City make the long journey south to face a Southampton side who will be hoping to secure a top-half finish for a third year in a row. City were champions in 2012 and 2014 but have been too inconsistent this season to challenge for a third Premier League title. Nonetheless, outgoing Manuel Pellegrini will hope to guide his side to a top-four spot before handing over the managerial reins to Pep Guardiola in the summer.
