Match Preview
The big match in the Premier League this weekend has huge ramifications on the Champions League race in the Premier League. Man City come into the round of matches sitting fifth in the standings, but their form has improved in recent weeks after winning three of their last four domestic matches.
Chelsea currently hold the coveted fourth-spot in the Premier League. The Blues got their campaign back on track at Stamford Bridge on Monday after battling to a win against Wolves. However, they haven’t recorded successive Premier League wins since December.

This hasn’t been a good fixture for Chelsea throughout recent history. Man City are unbeaten in their last seven league matches against the Blues, winning on five occasions over the period.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have recorded just a single clean sheet in their last 16 Premier League matches against City. Furthermore, the Blues have failed to score in seven matches over that period.
City’s return to form is reflected in the fact that they have scored 14 goals across their last four matches, which is as many as they had scored in their previous eleven. However, it could be worth noting that City have lost each of their last three after a round of Champions League matches.
Man City vs. Chelsea Picks
The fact that Man City’s defensive issues are showing no sign of ending would be a concern ahead of this fixture. Chelsea boast excellent quality in the final third of the field, and therefore, we could see a draw being an interesting angle on Saturday.
