Manchester City vs Chelsea

Manchester City and Chelsea are set to go head-to-head at the Etihad in Saturday’s early Premier League kick-off.

However, should City lose, they could see the gap between themselves and Liverpool reduced dramatically.

Jurgen Klopp’s men are currently 11 points behind, but boast a game in hand. This means that a loss to Chelsea, coupled with Liverpool winning their spare game and meeting with Brentford this weekend, would see City’s advantage at the top cut to just five points.

Manchester City have more covid cases ahead of Chelsea

Ahead of the Etihad clash, Pep Guardiola spoke to the press on Friday.

When doing so, the City boss confirmed that his side have new Covid-19 cases in their squad.


However, he was unable to confirm which players have the virus:

“Some people are coming, some are positive again. When you test once, twice, negative you come back. Otherwise not. It happened in all the clubs. We have some new cases, they want privacy so I can’t say.”
