Manchester City are on a roll, cruising their way towards the Premier League title, with seemingly no one in any position to stop them any time soon. Chelsea will be hoping to at least slow them down on Sunday, as well as hoping to turn around some of their shaky recent form.

Chelsea have been struggling a bit of late, giving up an early lead to lose to Manchester United last weekend, just a few short weeks after taking two straight humiliating losses to Bournemouth and Watford. Yes, they have league and FA Cup wins over West Bromwich Albion and Hull City in the meantime, as well as a Champions League draw against Barcelona, but it’s still impossible to ignore the specter of those three defeats. There’s been two Chelsea teams of late: one that can rise up and beat anyone, and one that’s so stagnant, so without drive that their talent is utterly wasted.
That’s a problematic conundrum against Manchester City, a team that’s shown time and again this season that they will take any weakness they see on the pitch and exploit it ruthlessly. It took a year to get everything set up the way he wanted it, but now Pep Guardiola has crafted a team that is hungry to win every match and takes every opportunity presented to them to do so. That spirit has put them into a position that a win here would give them a commanding eighteen point lead in the EPL with just nine matches to go, all but assuring them of winning the title this season in incredibly impressive fashion.
