Man City vs Chelsea Preview

Pep Guardiola's Man City will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing 4-2 Champions League defeat to PSG when they welcome Chelsea to the Etihad in a fiesty Premier League clash. We should see goals.

Man City vs Chelsea Form

Man City head into this fixture on the back of a demoralizing 4-2 defeat to PSG in the Champions League after letting a two goal lead slip.

Their last Premier League fixture was a resounding 6-0 win over Ipswich Town but they have won just four of their last ten league matches.

The English champions have struggled in defence, having kept just three clean sheets in ten Premier League matches.

They have conceded 2+ goals in four of their last eight league games while seven of their last ten games across all competitions have seen Over 2.5 goals.

Both teams have found the back of the net in City's three consecutive home league matches.

Chelsea have hit a purple patch of poor form recently and come into this fixture on the back of a comfortable 3-1 win over Wolves.

They have won just one of their last six Premier League games while Enzo Maresca's side have had significant issues in defence.

Chelsea have failed to keep a clean sheet in five straight Premier League matches while seven of their last ten league games have featured both teams to score.

The London club are winless in their last three away league games with all three games featuring Under 2.5 goals.

Man City vs Chelsea Predictions

With both teams currently struggling in defence, it could lead to an open end to end game. I'll be backing Both Teams To Score with 1win offering odds of 1.42.
