Manchester City’s hopes of winning a quadruple this season was ended by Wigan a few weeks back, but Pep Guardiola’s men could still end the season as treble winners.<\/p>\n
The beat Arsenal twice in under a week recently, the first of which came in the Carabao Cup final win last Sunday before winning them by a similar scoreline (3-0) in midweek.<\/p>\n
This game is one of the toughest they would play in their title run in and we expect Guardiola to field his strongest 11 here as their next game against Basel is almost a formality given their 4-0 advantage from the first leg. The Cityzens may have faltered a couple times recently, but that has come mainly on the road as they have won their last 13 home league games and they should add this to that number.<\/p>\n
Chelsea were the last team to win in the League at the Etihad some 15 months ago but it is hard to see the defending Champions repeating that feat here again.<\/p>\n
They lost to a below-par Manchester United team last Sunday and given the difference between the two Manchester teams you’d feel the Blues would lose here again.<\/p>\n
The Blues have lost 3 of their last 4 league games and have just 2 wins from their last 8 away games in the league. They have won 3, lost 3 and drew 1 of their last 7 meetings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
