Chelsea vs Manchester City Prediction & Picks - Premier League

Prediction published on 8/16/24, 11:30 AM by Bradley Gibbs in Premier League Picks

It may be the first weekend of the new campaign, but already the mammoth fixtures are heading our way. On Sunday afternoon, Chelsea and Manchester City will go head-to-head at Stamford Bridge, where the hosts will be looking to frustrate the champions, much as they did last season, not once, but twice. The visitors, as the team that won the league last time around, are the strong favorites here, but we probably shouldn't be too quick to dismiss the hosts, who will be looking to improve this season under Enzo Maresca.

Our Chelsea vs Manchester City Prediction

From a betting point of view, Manchester City's Phil Foden looks a nice bet to begin the season with a goal. Despite being hugely hyped beforehand, the Englishman struggled to leave his mark on Euro 2024, but we know how strong he is when he takes to the field as part of Pep Guardiola's team. A constant threat last term, Foden showed lots of hunger to score last season, so we know he'll want goals here. Looking at his stats, the currently available odds of +195 just look a little generous. Our Best Bet: Phil Foden to Score.

Prediction:

Phil Foden to Score

Odds : +195
