In the Premier League, Chelsea won all games, except for the game against Liverpool at Anfield (1-1). On September 22, Tuchel's footballers eliminated Aston Villa in 3rd round of the League Cup.

Manchester City is in 5th position in the Premier League standings (ten points after five matches). The Citizens gained three victories and one draw and suffered one defeat. Manchester City is behind other contenders for the title due to a defeat to Tottenham in the opening round (0-1) and a goalless draw with Southampton (0-0). However, the Citizens are only three points behind the leaders, and one victory can improve the position of the reigning champions of England. Last Tuesday Man City played their League Cup home game against Wycombe from League 1. And the Citizens confidently won with a score of 6-1, although they conceded first.
The teams of Tuchel and Guardiola will have the next games in mind before the match in London. The opponents have a difficult calendar: Chelsea will have to play against Juventus in Turin on Wednesday, and Manchester City will visit PSG and Liverpool next week. The busy schedule and high cost of losing a head-to-head match against a direct competitor for the title can force the clubs to act more carefully on the defensive. For this reason, it can be assumed that the game will end with low production. The Citizens scored only one goal in the last two rounds of the Premier League. Chelsea is very good at shutting out. In the championship, the Blues conceded only one goal from the penalty spot. There is a feeling that the strong defense of Chelsea will again be able to confuse Guardiola's coaching staff.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
