Manchester City v Cardiff City TV channel: What channel is Man City v Cardiff on tonight?
MANCHESTER CITY will look to move back to the top of the Premier League this evening when they take on Cardiff City at the Etihad. Liverpool overtook City at the weekend after their dramatic 2-1 win over Tottenham. But City will be strong favourites to overcome the Bluebirds, who are languishing in 18th place.

Manager Neil Warnock launched a furious tirade against Premier League referees following his side’s cruel 2-1 loss to Chelsea at the weekend – and even threatened to play the Under 23s against City in protest.
Whether that happens remains to be seen, but his opposite manager Pep Guardiola has revealed he is likely to rotate his squad tonight.
With FA Cup and Champions League ties on the horizon, City look to claim an unprecedented quadruple.
Pep Guardiola said in a pre-match press conference: “We judge a team on how many titles they will win, but I’m satisfied to think we are better than last season.

“We’ve had more time together. We have improved some things better and we do better things than last season, but at the end, we will be judged on the titles we win.
“The nicest thing is being here at this stage of the season.”
But rather than focus on the potential for trophies, Guardiola insisted the message to his players was to focus on the next game in front of them.
He said: “In one week, three days, we can lose all three titles – I know in your head is we can win all titles, but the next game is Cardiff then prepare for Brighton and then Tottenham.
