Manchester City
It is all green for the Citizens as they marked their 11 straight wins in all competitions during their outing against the Danish side, Copenhagen in the UCL 1st leg of the round of 16. They are back in Etihad to continue to defend their title with speed. Pep is the happy manager for now as his ironic players in the squad are on top of their quality. Man City is destined to take over the top spot in the EPL standing as there is still one game to be played to level the total game played by the Reds who are just 2 points away from Man City.
Erling Haaland entered into the score sheets twice in their last Premier League, which ended with a 2-0 win against Everton. He is now on top of to goal scorer leader board followed by Mohamed Salah who is still fighting to get back on the pitch. All big names are fit to start including the assist tactician, Kevin De Bruyne therefore another triumph from the host is expected.
Chelsea FC
After a blunt first half that was full of frustrations, Conor Gallagher’s brace is what was needed by the Blues a few minutes before Enzo Fernandez sealed their 3-1 win against Crystal Palace, during the London derby on Monday night. This could not change much for the Blues as they are still rooted at the center of the EPL table. Their next game could be the toughest one of the season as they have been having a challenging moment to get a result in Etihad recently.
Mauricio Pochettino is working hard to harmonize his players on the pitch right now, however, this coming match might spoil his squad-winning mentality. This could mean his only wish would be to hold Man City long enough until the final blow to collect at least a point on the road. Game ON.
