Comments and predictions for Man City vs Chelsea: Attack makes defense destroy

Latest Man City vs Chelsea squad information

City are without centre-back Ruben Dias after picking up an adductor injury against PSG, and he will miss the Chelsea game. Nathan Ake, Jeremy Doku, Oscar Bobb and Rodri are also out. Kyle Walker is also linked with a move to AC Milan. City have signed three new players, Omar Marmoush, Abdukodir Khusanov and Vitor Reis, all of whom could make their debuts against Chelsea. However, Guardiola is unlikely to risk starting them. Jack Grealish will get a chance to start after shining in midweek, although Savinho could still be the first choice. Kevin De Bruyne could start behind Erling Haaland in attack.

Chelsea also have personnel problems. Romeo Lavia, Wesley Fofana, Benoit Badiashile and Mykhaylo Mudryk are still sidelined. Levi Colwill and Enzo Fernandez are also likely to miss out as they have not recovered from injuries. Manager Maresca still has faith in goalkeeper Robert Sanchez despite his numerous errors. Reece James is still not fully fit, so Malo Gusto could start at full-back. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall could partner Moises Caicedo in midfield if Fernandez is absent. Jadon Sancho could be given priority on the wing due to poor form from Madueke and Pedro Neto, with Cole Palmer continuing to play as an attacking midfielder, just behind striker Nicolas Jackson.

Latest Man City vs Chelsea football review

Man City are trying to get back to form, but a 4-2 defeat to PSG poured cold water on their ambitions. Despite leading by 2 goals, Man City lost concentration and let their opponents score 3 goals in 22 minutes. Man City are currently 25th in the Champions League and must win their final match against Club Brugge to have any hope of progressing. They have blown the lead nine times in all competitions this season, the most in the Premier League.

Coach Guardiola and his students need to quickly revive their spirits for the upcoming difficult period, when they have to face a series of strong opponents such as Chelsea, Arsenal, Newcastle, Liverpool and Tottenham. Man City are also losing their last 3 matches in the Premier League after playing in the Champions League. However, they are unbeaten in their last 7 matches against Chelsea.

After a poor start, Chelsea have won two and drawn one of their last three games, including a 3-1 win over Wolves. Manager Maresca believes Chelsea can score more. Chelsea are currently fourth, two points ahead of Man City, and will be hoping to maintain that position. Chelsea have not beaten Man City in their last 10 games since the 2021 Champions League final and have not won at the Etihad since 2021. Despite having a better away record than home this season, Chelsea have failed to win their last three away games.
