Football Tips: Chelsea v Manchester City
The Premier League is by far the best football league in the world and there seems to be 1 or 2 top games every week. Tonight's game pits London giants Chelsea against reigning champions Manchester City. I will be backing Manchester City to win on the road as they are still the best team in Europe and Chelsea have stumbled again this year. I can highly recommend the odds of 1.75 and I will explain why in the following text. Personally, I like Chelsea because I grew up watching them during the Ballack era, but what they have done since the forced departure of Roman Abramowitsch is truly disgusting.

Are City the big title favourites again?
Manchester City have one of the best and, above all, deepest squads in Europe and, in Haaland, arguably the best striker in the world. The likes of Rodri, Ruben Dias and Bernardo Silva are also world class. Gvardiol, Doku and Alvarez are also two of the best talents in their respective positions. Unfortunately, Kevin De Bruye will be missing through injury, but Chelsea have other problems in that area. The Londoners' injury list is starting to clear, but top new signing Christopher Nkunku has yet to make a Premier League appearance. Chelsea did win their last game against Tottenham, but that was largely thanks to two red cards for the Spurs.

My Chelsea v Manchester City prediction
City won 3-0 away at United last time out, and they are still going strong in the Champions League. However, I would not underestimate the impact of this week's game, as many players were rested for the win over Bern. City have won the last five head-to-heads and I am predicting victory number six. Chelsea have had an inconsistent season and despite spending tens of millions of pounds, their squad lags far behind City's. Finishing 10th in the Premier League speaks volumes. Manchester City are a well-oiled machine at the moment and I do not think Chelsea can match them.
