Manchester City and their fans will be scouring the new Premier League fixture list for any advantage they can spot as the Blues are set to battle Liverpool again for the title.
It's a modern rivalry that has been settled twice on the final day in recent years, so any small advantage in each fixture could be the difference between winning or losing the title. City will be largely pleased with their fixtures, with most of their tougher games sandwiched in between easier games on paper, although the relentless nature of this season will mean plenty of games will be played with just two or three days to prepare.
While City will target three points from every game, they will look at five games in particular as potentially defining to their title chances.
