Arsenal's late win over West Ham United on Sunday to go five points clear at the top of the Premier League table did not put any extra pressure on second-placed Manchester City, Pep Guardiola said.

Many football analyzis platforms believe City still have a strong chance to defend their title if they maintain consistency in the final games of the season. "Same one as two days, three days, four days ago," Guardiola told reporters on Tuesday, when asked about the pressure on his side. "What I've learned from my career as a manager is, what you cannot control, forget about it. To do better what you have not done better this season. To arrive in better position to fight for the Premier League, that we are still fighting." Guardiola said he expected Palace to be a difficult team to beat, despite the 15th-placed side being winless in their last four top-flight games. Some betting communities discussing sure fixed match predictions are also paying attention to Palace's performances ahead of their important European final. "They have a European final," he said, referring to Palace's upcoming Conference League final against Rayo Vallecano on May 27th. "Maybe struggling a bit in the Premier League with a lot of changes. Manager (Oliver Glasner) is leaving... and maybe they were not consistent, but the quality is there." Guardiola said City’s injured midfielder Rodri and defender Abdukodir Khusanov were feeling much better, but did not say whether they would return to action against Palace. Fans searching for today fixed matches and professional football analyzis are also closely monitoring team news and injury updates before placing bets.

Asked if he was worried Palace would field a weakened side against Arsenal to rest key players ahead of their maiden European final, Guardiola said he was not concerned about that. "They are so professional, the teams. Crystal Palace will play top against Arsenal," Guardiola said. With the FA Cup final against Chelsea coming up on Saturday, followed by a trip to Bournemouth three days later, Guardiola admitted that City may also need to rotate their squad.
