Man City have gone five games unbeaten in the Premier League, but their return to form was emphatically ended with a 4-2 defeat by PSG on Wednesday. City will still be feeling the effects of that loss, which saw them throw away a 2-0 lead at the Parc des Princes.
Chelsea will aim to take advantage. Results have been mixed over the last few weeks, but Enzo Maresca's side beat Wolves 3-1 last time out. They have also had two days extra to prepare for this match at the Etihad Stadium.
Both teams will battle it out for control of the ball, but this game could be decided in transition. Neither Man City nor Chelsea excels at stopping opposition counter-attacks, so we can expect an exciting, end-to-end encounter.
Tune in to find out who emerges victorious. Read on to make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.
