History is being made for this special team, Manchester City, with their current winning streak of 11 games in the Premier League. This could pay dividends as a 12th consecutive victory would crown them champions of England for the third consecutive time. This feat has only been achieved by their cross-town rivals, Manchester United, whom they will face in the FA Cup final, adding another quest to their pursuit of matching their neighbors’ elusive treble. In the midweek, Manchester City showcased a masterclass against Europe’s most successful team, Real Madrid, defeating them 4-0 and securing their second-ever UEFA Champions League final appearance. This trophy has the potential to solidify Pep Guardiola’s legacy as one of the greatest coaches in the history of world football. It’s hard not to recall their defeat in the 2021 final when they lost the Champions League to the same capital club. Today, Mendy and Ake will be unable to participate in the game due to a muscle injury.
Chelsea has never lost six consecutive matches without scoring a goal to any opponent in their history, and it would be an unfortunate cherry on top of their own historic season, which is likely to result in the team finishing in the bottom half of the table for the first time since 1996. However, recently they have shown signs of life, managing to go two games without a defeat after suffering six consecutive losses. Frank Lampard’s men might have a good time at the Etihad Stadium, although none of their last 14 Premier League matches against teams starting the day above them have ended in victory. Currently, Chelsea has 11 wins and ten draws, earning them 43 points and placing them 11th in the league table. Today, Kovacic, Koulibaly, Guehi, Kante, James, Cucurella, Chilwell, Bettinelli, and Badashile will be unavailable due to injuries, with Badashile specifically having a groin injury.
