When they face off against each other in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea and Manchester City will both be hoping to get back on track with some victories.
Last time out, both teams were taken by surprise, as Chelsea was held by Nottingham Forest and Everton was able to frustrate Manchester City. Both teams' results were 1-1 draws.
As a consequence of this, Manchester City, who are now in second position, are seven points behind Arsenal, and Chelsea, who are currently in eighth place, are 11 points behind the team that won the title last season.
After suffering three straight defeats in the Premier League, Chelsea returned from the international break with an easy 2-0 victory over Bournemouth. This victory put an end to the losing streak.
On the other hand, they were held to a stalemate by Forest on Sunday, which resulted in a score of 1-1, and they might have lost the game after allowing the home team to build up 12 shots, five of which were on target.
The Blues have only won one of their last seven matches in the Premier League, increasing the amount of pressure on the club's new manager, Graham Potter.
It is anticipated that Chelsea will have difficulty beating Manchester City despite the fact that they have only lost four of their previous 37 home games in all competitions.
Even though the Citizens had 74% control of the ball and 16 shots on goal at home on New Year's Eve against Everton, they were only able to pull out a 1-1 draw in the match.
Last time out in the Premier League, Erling Haaland scored his 21st goal in 15 appearances, but the Everton Toffees were able to escape the Etihad Stadium with a draw thanks to an incredible long-range shot from Demarai Gray.
It is important to point out, however, that City has only suffered two defeats in their 16 league matches played this season, compiling a record of 11 victories and three draws as a result.
