Manchester City is steadily regaining their trademark consistency. Last weekend, the Citizens extended their unbeaten run to five matches, a stretch that includes three wins and two draws. In their most recent Premier League outing, Pep Guardiola’s men delivered a stunning performance, dismantling Ipswich 6-0 away from home.
Currently sitting in fifth place, City finds themselves just two points shy of the Champions League spots. At the Etihad this season, they’ve secured six wins from 10 Premier League matches, with only two defeats. However, their midweek trip to Paris ended in disappointment as they fell 2-3 to PSG in the Champions League, despite holding a 2-0 lead. While their European campaign has taken a dramatic turn, City still has time to salvage their hopes.
As for Chelsea, they finally snapped their prolonged winless streak in the league with a commanding 3-1 home victory over Wolverhampton. Prior to that, the Blues had gone five matches without a win, accumulating three draws and two losses during that spell.
That recent victory helped Enzo Maresca’s side strengthen their grip on a Champions League spot. However, the race remains tight, with both Manchester City and Newcastle breathing down their necks, just two points behind. Interestingly, Chelsea is tied with City as the third-highest-scoring team in the league this season, with both sides tallying 44 goals so far.
