Manchester City’s defeat at Chelsea forced Pep Guardiola to concede the title has “gone” but a Champions League place needs to be secured and these are three must-have points. Hull moved out of the bottom three for the first time since October with the win over Middlesbrough making it 17 points from 11 games since Marco Silva took over but must retrace their steps to 1930 for their last win at City.
