Manchester City - Chelsea: Form Analysis
Manchester City have made an incredible surge in the second half of the season to reel in and surpass the long-time leaders, Arsenal. Following a convincing 3-0 over Everton last weekend, the hosts are now unbeaten in their last 14 league matches and come into this one on an 11-match winning streak. The last time Manchester City lost in the league was at the start of February against Tottenham Hotspur. They have been excellent at the Etihad Stadium this season, winning 16 of their 18 home matches while drawing one and losing just one. The hosts are on a nine-match winning run at home and unbeaten in their last ten.
Meanwhile, Chelsea will want this season to end as soon as possible. The visitors have managed just 43 points this season, eight points fewer than Fulham in tenth place and a whopping 23 behind the top four sides. Chelsea were held to a 2-2 draw by a resilient Nottingham Forest in their last match. They have won just two of their last ten league matches, along with three draws and five losses. Chelsea have struggled on the road this season, managing to win just five of their 17 away matches while drawing four and losing eight.

Manchester City & Chelsea Squad Analysis
Manchester City's only injury concern ahead of this crucial match is around Nathan Ake. The Dutchman has not featured in any of Manchester City's last three matches due to a hamstring injury, and he is likely to miss this one as well. With two more league matches and two cup finals to come in quick succession after this, Pep Guardiola will likely make several changes to the side that he fielded in midweek. Phil Foden and Riyad Mahrez are both likely to return to the starting eleven in attack alongside the Norwegian powerhouse Erling Haaland.
Chelsea, on the other hand, will be without a minimum of six key players for this match. All three first-team full-backs, Reece James, Ben Chillwell, and Marc Cucurella are suffering from hamstring injuries and will not feature here. N'golo Kante, Mason Mount, and Armando Broja are also out, likely for the rest of the season. Kalidou Koulibaly and Mateo Kovacic will undergo late fitness tests, but both have been flagged as doubtful.
