Chelsea v Manchester City Preview and Prediction

Date/Time: Saturday 08^th December 2018 (Kick-off 5:30 PM)

On Saturday evening, Chelsea and Manchester City go head-to-head at Stamford Bridge, in what could be the Premier League game of the weekend.

Chelsea’s form has dipped of late and led the Blues to slip to fourth spot in the English top-flight table. There has been no such slip for Manchester City, who sit top of the table, unbeaten in 15 league games.

The home side are only in the top-four courtesy of a better goal difference than fifth-place Arsenal. The Blues head into this game on the back of just one victory in four league outings after a 2-1 win at Wolves last time out.

Despite a recent inconsistent run in the Premier League, Chelsea are undefeated in 11 matches at Stamford Bridge.

Top Football Bookmakers

Manchester City are two points clear at the top of the Premier League after 13 wins from their 15 matches so far this season. The Citizens have now scored at least twice in their last five top-flight games.

Last time out, Pep Guardiola’s team recorded a 2-1 victory over Watford. The victory means that the Citizens have won 11 of their last 13 away games in the top-flight.

The visitors have won their last three matches against the Blues in all competitions. A four straight win cannot be ruled out.

Prediction

Away win and/or over 2.5 goals
