Soooo good afternooneeeeeees. Great game in the Premier. He Manchester City receives the Chelsea in it Etihad to maintain their pursuit of the lead, just in the week in which their round of 16 tie of the Champions League. Those of Guardiolainsatiable, have eleven consecutive victories in all competitions, 14 games in a row without losing, and they want to take another bite so as not to lose distance with the Liverpool, which has already won today. City went 25 games without losing (20 wins and five draws) last season, between February and May, which led them to win an unprecedented treble in the history of English football: Premier, FA Cup and Champions League. A dream that they want to repeat this course.
In front, a Chelsea with many doubts and worse arrangement. The signings do not quite fit together, the option of playing in Europe next season continues to move away… and an adverse result against City at the Etihad could open a waterway in the transatlantic Boehly. Last season they were already left out of European competitions by finishing twelfth (their worst league position since 1993-94) and now they are on their way to repeating disappointment and returning to a scenario they have not experienced for 27 years! Between 1995 and 1997 they did not play in Europe.
The first round match ended 4-4, so we ask nothing less of this match. Chelsea has not been able to beat City since the 2021 Champions League final. Since then they have played seven times with six skyblue victories and one draw, that 4-4 in the first round of this season. There will be tension and there will surely be goals, so we cannot miss a minute. We didn’t wait any longer, we got together to experience the Premier in MARCA and we started.
