    A 520 mile round-trip isn't ideal four days before your first FA Cup semi-final since 1987.

    Leeds will be hoping they can extend their unbeaten run on the road to six games - their longest in the Premier League since 2001 - and make the trek worth it for their travelling support.

    Then Wembley awaits on Sunday. The 382 miles from Elland Road and back will seem like a piece of cake in comparison.

  2. 'Cherries to nick it'published at 19:48 BST 22 April

    If sixth place does get you in the Champions League then Bournemouth are in with a great shout - they are in brilliant form.

    Leeds are in decent shape too, after back-to-back wins over Manchester United and Wolves.

    They are not mathematically safe yet but they soon will be, because they have been phenomenal when I've watched them recently. They are so well organised and their system works - there is a lovely balance to their team and they have got a goal or two in them.

    Eli Junior Kroupi's stoppage-time goal denied Leeds a win at Elland Road in September, but at that stage of the season Leeds had a habit of fading late in games - not any more.

    Their previous away performance, for their win at Old Trafford, was absolutely outstanding and I can see them giving Bournemouth a good game.

    The Cherries are playing with lots of confidence too, however, and they have not lost in the league since the start of January. I am going with them to nick this one, and leave Leeds with a little bit more work to do.

    Sutton's prediction: 2-1

    Pep Guardiola speaking to Sky Sports on where Nico O'Reilly play in Rodri's absence: "You will see it."

    On the feeling among his players: "You have to adapt when you play in all competitions for many years. Huge respect for Burnley. Six games left, let's try to win three points."

    On if he is confident his side can go top given their impressive April record: "Sometimes you have to be good in the past. Arsenal have been better so far. Tonight we can equalise and get the same points. We have to do what we have to do on the pitch. To win points we have to do something. "

    Unfortunately I cannot see Arsenal winning the league now. They have slipped up far too many times and now it is City’s to lose.

    Arav, London

    Arsenal have to still be favourites, they don’t really have a tough game left. The Champions League is the only thing going against them but they have a deeper squad to lean on.

    It's fascinating and it's great that we have a proper title race.

    Pep Guardiola and his Manchester City side will respect every single game - there's some tough ones along the way. Away from home too where City haven't been their best this season.

    Everyone is saying now they're back to their best and are going to go on an unbelievable run but there are still things there to be improved on.

    They are in their stride, they're in the mix. If you'd have said that a few months ago, or even a few weeks ago, when certain games were getting thrown away you'd have said no chance of that.

    It's Arsenal who have let them back in unfortunately for them.

    It would be shame if Mikel Arteta, with the run and record he has had, ends without a title but you're coming up against Guardiola.

    With Arsenal losing Sunday's game, everybody is talking like the league is over and Manchester City will just go on and romp it now. However, if you're balanced and you look at the fixtures, it isn't over by a stretch. Arsenal are really capable of winning all of their last five games.

    I don't think they were psychologically damaged by the defeat - and we would be talking differently had Kai Havertz buried his header at the end, as he should've done.

    It really didn't feel like I was watching an Arsenal team who felt they were inferior. In fact, the loss might galvanise the team and really strengthen them

    The view of the Lancashire hills from the top of Turf Moor press box provides one of THE great vantage points at Premier League stadiums.

    And Manchester City will be aiming to hit the summit tonight with victory over Burnley which will rubberstamp Scott Parker's side's relegation back to the Championship.

    City are expected to win this game by a canter, they have won their last 11 in a row against Burnley, but will it be as easy as that again?

    Bournemouth fans will be keen to enjoy their last five matches under Andoni Iraola, but here's what they've got to look forward to next season when Marco Rose replaces the Spaniard...

    Bournemouth are impressed by Rose's five years of experience leading clubs in the Champions League, as well as his Europa League pedigree.

    He has played a role in the development of several leading players, including Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham at Borussia Dortmund and Dominik Szoboszlai at RB Leipzig.

    Rose also enjoyed surprise success at Borussia Monchengladbach, qualifying for the Champions League with limited resources.

    Those experiences would be key if Bournemouth are to qualify for Europe for the first time.

    It is also a low-risk appointment as Rose is currently without a club, meaning no compensation is required, but it is one they hope will make an immediate impact next season.

    Speaking to Sky Sports pre-match, Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola was asked if hees similarities between his side and Leeds: "Yes, in a lot of ways. Both teams work a lot and are very honest in what we do. Both teams are on a very good run, a lot of games without a loss.

    "It is going to be a big challenge. I am sure if we are ready for the challenge. It is going to be an exciting one."

    On his departure and Marco Rose's arrival: "I think the players have shown in their last two results that it is not affecting the performances and I think that speaks well of their mentality. The most important thing is the five games remaining and the big opportunity in front of us. Let's focus on this and see what the players are doing."

    With at least eight English teams set to compete in Europe next season, Bournemouth are in a promising position.

    A win tonight would see the Cherries move up to sixth, which would guarantee Europa League football as things stand.

    Riding a 13-match unbeaten streak, Andoni Iraola will be determined to keep the momentum going and guide the club to a historic first-ever European qualification before he says goodbye at the end of the season.

    On Liam Rosenior's sacking

    You would have to be a bit simple to be surprised at the situation with all the evidence in front of you. This is four seasons the new ownership has been in. This is manager number six. You change it that amount of times, you have to ask the question - is the problem really the manager?

    I try not to get too upset or annoyed or angry about but I do get upset for the Chelsea fans because we are all talking about Rosenior just now. It shouldn't be a surprise. He clearly didn't have the team playing for him. The team spirit wasn't there.

    I was at the Everton game surrounded by six international players that played for Everton. Every one of them said the same thing no leadership, no spirit. You can say that's the manager, or you can say is this thing working? They weren't buying the manager and they aren't buying the ideology. It's not a small problem of Liam Rosenior. If you think that's the problem and you're a Chelsea fan you are deluding yourself. It's something much bigger and wider.

    You have to look at the underlying problems. Why is there no leadership on the pitch? The initial ideology was to get all these young players in. You need people that have been through this before to help the youngsters through. There doesn't seem to be anyone like that at the club. It doesn't mean because it's novel that it's wrong, but it doesn't look great, does it?

    I completely understood City's celebrations at full-time on Sunday.

    Arsenal are their main rivals, there is a lot of needle between the two sides - like Erling Haaland and Gabriel for example - and they had just beaten them in a must-win game in the title race.

    Now Pep Guardiola's side will be fully focused on getting the win they need here - and I don't just think City will win at Burnley, I think they will win well.

    I know the Clarets went ahead against Nottingham Forest on Sunday but they ended up losing that one heavily.

    I can see a similar scoreline here. You just feel like City's tails will be up - they have got some tough games ahead, but this should be comfortable for them.

    Burnley will battle and they will give it a go but with what is at stake for City, and the quality they have in the final third, I am thinking they can boost their goal difference as well as collecting the three points.

    Sutton's prediction: 0-4

    Manchester City are now just about everyone's favourites to win the Premier League.

    They have all the buzz words on their side; momentum, experience and belief. They 'know' they can win the title because many of the group have done it before, Arsenal only 'hope' they are still capable.

    City's win over Arsenal provides the ultimate dream sporting scenario. They both could well end the season on the same points total now and that provides the conditions for a total change in attitude.

    If either team is 2-0 up with half an hour to go, they will still have to go at it full throttle for more goals to increase their goal difference.

    As a kid, I was brought up with this attitude at Celtic. The phrase was "score an early goal and press on regardless". For years this was considered quaint and almost naive - but from here on in, it is absolutely necessary.
