Man City have kept a clean sheet in their last 4 matches (Premier League). Chelsea have won their last 3 home matches (Premier League). Chelsea have won their last 3 matches against Man City in all competitions. There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Chelsea's last 3 home games (Premier League). Chelsea have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 home matches (Premier League).
Chelsea are unbeaten in all seven of their matches this season. They head into Saturday's game three points clear of Manchester City. Thomas Tuchel has won all three matches against Pep Guardiola as Chelsea manager. City suffered a set-back in the league last weekend with a goalless draw against Southampton. Defeat on Saturday would put City on the back foot further in the title race. Given their injury concerns, it wouldn't be a surprise to see City lose at Stamford Bridge. 2:1
Édouard Mendy has missed Chelsea's last two matches but Thomas Tuchel is confident he will be available to face Manchester City on Saturday. The fact N'Golo Kante started against Aston Villa in midweek makes it unlikely he will start again here. There is no chance Saul Niguez starts after yet another unimpressive display against Aston Villa. Reece James was terrific in midweek but may have to settle for a place on the bench. Manchester City have three away games in a row against Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool so it will interesting to see how Pep Guardiola manages his squad. The City boss is already sweating on the fitness of key players like Aymeric Laporte, John Stones, Rodri and Ilkay Gundogan. Nathan Ake is on standby to continue in defence if neither Stones nor Laporte recover in time for Saturday's early kick-off. Given City's upcoming matches, it is a surprise Phil Foden and Kevin De Bruyne played 90 minutes against Wycombe in midweek despite the need to get minutes in them. It wouldn't be a complete shock if one started on the bench against Chelsea, with Bernardo Silva on standby to start if required. Riyad Mahrez may find himself on the bench despite also recording a perfect WhoScored 10 rating against Wycombe. Ferran Torres and Raheem Sterling appear to be vying to start through the middle for City at the moment, though the former may win out here.
