Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City’s push for Champions League qualification will go to the “95th minute” and the last corner at Fulham on Sunday. City’s goal difference means a draw should guarantee a top-five finish but the manager is convinced it will go to the wire.

Guardiola said: “I knew this already, that it will be the last moment, when 95 minutes are up it will be decided if we will play in the Champions League. And I’m not wrong. So I know we have to arrive at the end, the last corner, and we have to be ready.”
