Manchester City picked up their second successive Premier League victory last weekend to just about keep their title hopes alive.

Pep Guardiola’s men followed up their 4-0 thumping of West Ham last week with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Swansea on Sunday, with a Gabriel Jesus brace enough to see off Paul Clement’s side.
