Preview

Man City are chasing another cup and the road starts here.

A bit of crossed paths as City are basking in a great win in coming from behind fashion as the blue of London have lost to Arsenal.

This match should be a fun clash of styles as Guardiola vs Potter should entertain.

Should be an interesting affair as City look set to rotate heavily from the weekend’s match.

Team News

Man City will have Kyle Walker out and Kalvin Phillips is questionable.

Chelsea meanwhile, will see Chilwell, Chukwuemeka, Arrizabalaga, Kante and James, Fofana are out.

Prediction

Manchester City 2-1 Chelsea
