- Ahead of this weekend’s Premier League game, with updates on both teams, unavailable players and predictions for the match results.
- The two teams had just met in a friendly and City won 4-2.
- The last time Chelsea beat Man City was in the 2021 UEFA Champions League final.
Chelsea will debut new manager Enzo Maresca in this game and it will also be a meeting with his former club. And of course, everyone wants to see how much the Blue Lions will change, both in terms of playing style and the many new players who have been bought over the past few months. However, their performance in warm-up matches was considered poor, winning only one game from the 6 games they have competed in.
Manchester City recently won the Community Shield after beating Manchester United on penalties last weekend. Their warm-up results were equally dismal, with one win and three losses, including a 4-2 win over Chelsea.

Predict the possibility and results of the competition
The big match of the week of the Premier League 2024/25 season is a meeting between two high-society teams, Chelsea, who just changed their new manager to Enzo Maresca, and the 4-time league champion, Manchester City, who just won the Community Shield last weekend. The
game is expected that the away team will focus on controlling the ball and attacking, while Chelsea will focus on packing the midfield, playing tightly and waiting for mistakes to counterattack. Of course, Maresca, who used to be Guardiola’s right-hand man, knows the old boss very well and may have some surprises for us to watch. However, the Sky Blues still look clearly superior even though they have to play as the away team.
It is believed that in this match, they will return to using their full senior players after resting many players in the Community Shield match. However, it will not be easy if they think of coming to score a goal in London in this match. Deep down, they still think that the Sky Blues have a better chance of winning, but they will probably only be able to narrowly win and take home 3 points.
Score Prediction: Chelsea 0-1 Manchester City
