Man City is preparing for three home matches in their next four fixtures and will love a return to Etihad where they have not lost any of their previous 22 Premier League games. The Citizens have also won six of their last eight top-flight home meetings with Chelsea, maintaining a clean sheet in five of those wins.
The Citizens have had a hard time getting clean sheets this season, as they conceded 11 of their last 13 premier league games. Man City can’t afford to show any defensive weaknesses today against Chelsea which has sent four goals past them in the reverse fixture and have since scored eight times in the last three meetings.

Haven gotten 10 victories, four draws and 10 defeats from 24 Premier League matches, few fans will be surprised to see Chelsea suffer in 10th position. However, winning European football next season is a possibility for the Blues as they are just two points behind Newcastle United in seventh and seven points apart from Manchester United in sixth. Two teams they still haven’t played at home.
The Blues must find consistency quickly if they hope to climb the table. However, winning today could be a challenge especially as they could not win their last seven fixtures with Man City. The last time Chelsea won was their 1-0 victory in the 2021 Champions League final. The Blues have also conceded 18 of their last 19 Premier League meetings with City.
MatchPlug Prediction For Man City VS Chelsea
It is hard for experts to bet against a strong title-chasing Man City who have turned Etihad Stadium into a stronghold and have lots of in-form forwards on their squad that can send them into a seventh consecutive Premier League victory. Sadly, Chelsea will have to sit this one out.
Final Prediction: Man City Moneyline.
