Chelsea vs Manchester City Preview and Team News

Chelsea Team News

Chelsea’s dreadful recent form improved slightly with a dominant 7-0 win over Port Vale in the FA Cup. They had lost four straight matches before that, scoring in only one of them.

Before the Port Vale clash, they were beaten 0-3 by Everton in a game where the Blues controlled 64% possession but generated a poor xG of 0.93. They created just two big chances and took a mere four shots on target. Defensively, Chelsea recorded only seven interceptions and two blocks.

Enzo Fernandez remains suspended, while Jamie Gittens, Trevoh Chalobah, Levi Colwill, Filip Jorgensen, and Reece James are sidelined with injuries.

Chelsea predicted lineup vs Manchester City (4-2-3-1): Sanchez; Cucurella, Hato, Fofana, Gusto; Caicedo, Lavia; Neto, Garnacho, Palmer; Pedro.

Manchester City Team News

Manchester City sit second in the Premier League table and remain firmly in the title race with ambitions of overtaking Arsenal. They come here on the back of two consecutive victories, including their most recent 4-0 FA Cup win over Liverpool.

Erling Haaland’s hat-trick helped seal the deal for Pep Guardiola’s men, with additional support from Antoine Semenyo on the flanks, who posted xG + xA of 0.59. Rayan Cherki, operating in the No. 10 role, recorded a passing accuracy of 87%.

John Stones, Josko Gvardiol, and Ruben Dias have all been sidelined with injuries.

Manchester City predicted lineup vs Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Donnarumma; O’Reilly, Guehi, Khusanov, Nunes; Silva, Rodri; Doku, Cherki, Semenyo; Haaland.

Chelsea vs Manchester City Prediction

  • Pick: Manchester City to win or draw
  • Odds: -286 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Chelsea 0-2 Manchester City

We expect Man City to either win or draw. They’ve avoided defeat in 33 of the last 45 meetings with Chelsea, including 14 of the last 22 at Stamford Bridge. Their road form has also been strong, as they’ve either won or drawn 11 of their 15 away matches in the league this season.

Chelsea vs Manchester City Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Erling Haaland to score
  • Odds: -105 (20Bet)

Haaland should find the net. He is the league’s top scorer with 22 goals and also leads the competition with 29 goal contributions. The Norwegian won the Golden Boot award in 2022-23 and 2023-24.

What’s more, Haaland is in excellent form, having just scored three goals against Liverpool in the FA Cup. He should be primed to score against the Blues, given that he’s also found the net in each of the Cityzens’ last two visits to Stamford Bridge.
