In-form Manchester City will be hosting a Chelsea team that is on a mini revival in a huge Premier League clash on Saturday night. Pep Guardiola’s side are currently on a ten-match winning streak, the same type of run they have been on in the last years they’ve won the league.
Chelsea’s last league match saw them triumph 3-1 over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, leaving them in 10th place on 34 points. City were pegged back by the Blues in a thrilling 4-4 draw back in November last year, however they face a major task this time around.
The Blues have kept just one clean sheet in their last 19 Premier League encounters with Man City. The Treble winners have won six of their last eight Premier League home games against Chelsea.
