The Man City vs Chelsea live stream is a must-watch as City look to continue their impeccable form. Can Chelsea stop them in their tracks? You can watch it live from anywhere.
Man City are currently on an 11-game win streak and come into Saturday clash on the back of an impressive midweek performance showing against Copenhagen in the Champions League. That said, The Citizens have only won one game against the 'big six' Premier League teams this season, and when City visited Stamford Bridge in November, it ended in a 4-4 draw. This time, Kevin De Bruyne is back and in rampant form – will he be the deciding factor in the title race?
Chelsea’s season has been wholly underwhelming, and with fan unrest growing Mauricio Pochettino‘s job is looking vulnerable. Fortunately for the Chelsea boss, Connor Gallagher rescued three points against his former team, Crystal Palace, on Monday. A win against second place City could put Blues fans back in the pink.
City manager Guardiola has confirmed that Jack Grealish (groin) and Josko Gvardiol (ankle) are both sidelined while Bernardo Silva (ankle) will undergo assessment before kickoff.
Former Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic is available for selection after missing the last two games due to a minor knee issue, and Sergio Gomez has returned to first-team training.
Thiago Silva is unavailable due to a groin injury sustained against Palace, so Levi Colwill is set to partner Axel Disasi at centre-back.
Carney Chukwuemeka sustained an ankle injury in training earlier this week and will also miss out, joining Benoit Badiashile (groin), Wesley Fofana (knee), Marc Cucurella (ankle), Reece James, Romeo Lavia, and Lesley Ugochukwu (all hamstring) on the sidelines.
Manchester City continues their chase to catch Liverpool for the Premier League lead with a clash against the rollercoaster that is Chelsea Football Club. These two teams produced one of the highest scoring games in the Premier League last time they this season with the duo combining for eight goals at Stamford Bridge. While this match may not bring as many fireworks, with Josko Gvardiol already ruled out and City having played in the Champions League midweek, Chelsea could have a chance to pick up points coming off of a stoppage time comeback against Crystal Palace.
Now that he's healthy, all eyes will be on attempting to contain Erling Haaland but Chelsea can't lose track of Phil Foden who is playing his best soccer in a City shirt and scoring more goals since the return of Kevin De Bruyne. Jack Grealish will also miss the match but Bernardo Silva and Mateo Kovacic could both be in contention boosting the midfield ranks.
Cole Palmer returns to the Ethiad to face his former club as he and Conor Gallagher have been central to Chelsea's attack. Reece James has returned to light training but Benoit Badiashile will miss the match along with Thiago Silva, giving Mauricio Pochettino decisions to make in defense. Chelsea will have to try and stay on the front foot in the match to avoid being overwhelmed but that will provide chances on the counter.
City stormed to a midweek 3-1 Champions League Round of 16 first-leg win at FC Copenhagen but their attention now turns to domestic matters ahead of the reverse fixture in March. Guardiola's charges have now won 11 games in a row in all competitions and they remain on track for another trophy treble this season across the Premier League, FA Cup and UEFA Champions League.
Guardiola will assess his squad ahead of this game with Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish both suffering injuries in Copenhagen. Mateo Kovacic is back in training but defender Josko Gvardiol is out until March.
Malo Gusto is back for Mauricio Pochettino in this game but goalkeeper Robert Sanchez is not ready to return following a knee problem. Former City winger Cole Palmer will start after an impressive run of form since his summer move to Stamford Bridge with 10 Premier League goals and six assists.
The champions were pegged back by the Blues in a thrilling 4-4 draw back in November but Mauricio Pochettino’s side face a major task this time around.
Indeed, Pep Guardiola’s treble winners are now on a ten-match winning run, the kind of streak that has previously seen them conquer all before them.
Chelsea, meanwhile, remain hugely inconsistent. Capable of pulling off big performances against the top teams at times, they simply cannot be relied upon.
City will be missing Jack Grealish after he was forced off during their Champions League win away at FC Copenhagen, a game in which Bernardo Silva was also replaced and remains a doubt for the weekend.
Chelsea, meanwhile, will be without Thiago Silva after the groin injury he sustained against Crystal Palace on Monday evening. Benoit Badiashile will also miss around a month of action with a similar problem.
The Jamaica international extended her Golden Boot-leading tally to 14 goals in 13 appearances, two more than Chelsea’s Lauren James, who was largely quiet in front of a sold-out Kingsmeadow.
Chelsea had what might have been an all-important penalty shout dismissed before the break and it took an outstanding effort by City keeper Khiara Keating to keep out the Blues in a thrilling second-half stoppage-time surge.
The top two sides head into their last eight matches level on 34 points and even on goal difference, with Chelsea’s 41 goals five more than City’s total, allowing them to remain leaders for another week.
