Manchester City vs Leeds - Premier League: TV channel, team news, lineups & prediction
Manchester City will look to record their tenth Premier League win in a row when they welcome Leeds to the Etihad Stadium and Sam Allardyce back to the big time.
City have a defining May in the title race with Arsenal and in Europe, where they face Real Madrid again in the Champions League semi-finals. They play eight games in total this month, the first being Wednesday's 3-0 win over West Ham.
Leeds have opted for the lesser-spotted Jesse Marsch to Javi Gracia to Sam Allardyce survival route this season, but former England and Bolton boss Allardyce has a major job on his hands to get anything from his first match with United.

Manchester City vs Leeds score prediction
Allardyce ranked himself among the Guardiolas and Jurgen Klopps when he was unveiled as Leeds' new manager and now has to back it up to keep Leeds in with a chance of staying up.
However, a trip at the Etihad is a daunting first trip for any incoming manager and the form of the hosts will be too much for Allardyce and United.
Big Sam and Leeds are likely to get back on the bus to Leeds with no points and a firm beating to show for it.
