After Sunderland’s win over Cardiff took the Black Cats out of the drop zone, our attentions turn to the summit as the top three sides prepare for action. In what could prove a decisive day in the race for the title, Liverpool welcome Chelsea to Anfield before City make their way to Selhurst Park to face a Palace side looking for a sixth straight win under Tony Pulis:

Our first stop is at Anfield, then, where the likes of Luis Suarez, Steven Gerrard and Raheem Sterling will be looking to grab the goals that would bring the Reds one step closer to clinching the title and end Chelsea’s bid for the crown.

Daniel Sturridge is on the bench for the hosts after recovering from a hamstring problem, whilst Jose Mourinho rings the changes for the visitors and makes seven alterations ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final second leg clash with Atletico Madrid.

Full details of the day’s starting lineups can be found via our Twitter feed, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom remains opens for those looking to indulge in some real-time banter.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Crazy how deep Gerrard was there. He was actually the furthest back Liverpool player. Surely he should never be quite as far back as that. I can understand him playing deep but at times he's playing centre back.

      I think it is because people are just happy to see a team who look like they are going to win the league with a solid team of mostly young, mostly British players, led by a young exciting British manager, who have got where they have not through spending huge amounts of money but by playing genuinely exciting attacking football, and who seem to be enjoying it.
