Manchester City faces three games in a period of seven days that will be crucial in their bid for a treble of national trophies.

The Premier League announced on Tuesday that City’s postponed match against Crystal Palace has been moved to May 13.

Pep Guardiola’s team plays the FA Cup final against Chelsea three days later at Wembley Stadium and then visits Bournemouth on May 19.

It’s a potentially grueling run of games at the end of the season for City, who have already won the English League Cup and are locked in a title race with Arsenal.

Arsenal are three points ahead but have played one more game.

The match against Palace was originally due to be played on the weekend of the League Cup final last month. The Bournemouth match was also postponed after City beat Southampton on Saturday to advance to the FA Cup final.
