Chelsea vs Manchester City Prediction

Chelsea and Manchester City will complete the Matchday No 12 in the Premier League with a super-exciting derby on Sunday afternoon at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues could not have announced this game in a better way, having destroyed city rivals Tottenham on Monday Night Football.

Mauricio Pochettino’s men responded well after conceding an early goal as they earned their way to a demolishing 4-1 victory over nine-man Spurs in a match that offered everything football can offer, including goals, disallowed goals, penalties, red cards, etc.

It was a huge win for Chelsea confidence-wise, especially ahead of the clash with the defending champions.

Manchester City were also successful last weekend, bagging six goals past the struggling AFC Bournemouth at Etihad Stadium.

There were big question-marks around Erling Haaland’s potential injury after his half-time sub against the Cherries, but the league’s top scorer recovered immediately to feature in the mid-week’s UEFA Champions League win over Young Boys.

Haaland completed a brace on Tuesday night and he is set to start on Sunday at Stamford Bridge. The win over Bournemouth was third on the spin for Pep Guardiola’s troops who took over Tottenham at the top of the Premier League standings with nine wins in the inaugural eleven rounds.

Latest Meetings

Manchester City have completely dominated this matchup in recent years. They’ll come into this on the back of six subsequent victories over the Blues.

Chelsea failed to find the back of the net in any of these six clashes against the Citizens.

Historically, Manchester City only have 20 wins in the previous 81 visits to Stamford Bridge.

The Verdict

As good as Chelsea were on Monday Night Football, we can’t back anything else but an away win here knowing the Citizens have won each of the last six encounters with the Blues.

The away win is paid at the 1.75 odds while we will alternatively take the 1.80 odds offered for the Over 2.5 goals FT pick.
