Manchester City will hope to keep their all-conquering form rolling into 2022 as they face Leicester on Boxing Day.

City have won eight Premier League matches in a row heading into this one and have floated to the top flight’s summit.

Pep Guardiola’s men have only conceded nine goals in 18 games so far this term while they have increased their goalscoring output with 11 goals in two matches.

Leicester appear to have put out the fires that threatened to wreak havoc on their season, but they’re far short of challenging for the top four as they’ve become accustomed to.

Brendan Rodgers knows that his men are up against it in this one, but will be determined to put in a steely display at the Etihad.

Our prediction: Man City v Leicester

City look unstoppable right now. How do you even consider getting through them in the form they’re in?

Joao Cancelo continues to make a mockery of attackers and defenders alike, dancing to his own beat and picking teams off at will from deep.

Kevin De Bruyne is creeping into form, Raheem Sterling is performing, Bernardo Silva is improving, Phil Foden is Phil Foden, Gabriel Jesus is pulling his weight. Do we need to go on?

Our prediction: Man City 3-1 Leicester (11/1 at bet365)
