Pep Guardiola believes defeat against Leicester this weekend would cost Manchester City the title. The champions host the struggling Foxes on Saturday and can move within three points of leaders Arsenal with victory.

Yet with the Gunners – who City face in a crunch clash later this month – tackling another troubled team in West Ham on Sunday, Guardiola feels any slip-up could be ruinous for their chances.

The City manager said: “Everybody knows that if we lose games we lose competitions. That’s why our attention to details is higher.
