Looking to extend our unbeaten run in the league to six on Saturday when we welcomed Middlesbrough to a sunny City Football Academy, City also knew a win would move us one step closer to winning a second successive North title.
Standing in our way was a Boro side who came into our latest league assignment off the back of an impressive 9-0 win over Blackburn Rovers.
With that in mind, City would have to be at our best in all areas of the pitch if we were to beat our opponents on home soil.
Can City earn three vital points and move closer to the North title? Or would Boro add a twist to the title race?
