Chelsea are battling to hold onto Conor Gallagher – who skippered the side so often in Reece James’ absence last season – after he rejected another new deal proposal. A move to Atletico Madrid could be announced before these two meet.
The two league meetings ended in draws last season, a 1-1 result at the Etihad following a dramatic 4-4 blockbuster at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season – before City were 1-0 winners in the FA Cup at the semi final stage.
Odds are correct at the time of publication and are subject to change.
Last season’s saw these two sides draw twice in the league and separated by a solitary goal in the FA Cup.
They’re both not quite firing on all cylinders – as is to be expected – and the squads aren’t quite full yet after Euros and Copa America exploits.
