Chelsea is up against Manchester City in the English Premier League. The Blues have the home advantage in this tie and they are yet to lose a game since the restart of the season. Backing the hosts to get at least a draw in normal time against Manchester City is the best available option in this fixture.

Manchester City travels to the Stamford Bridge, London on Thursday in the 19th round of the English Premier League where they face Chelsea FC.

Graham Potter's Chelsea has seen a massive improvement in their performance after the FIFA World Cup. They got all three points last time they played at the Stamford Bridge in a two nil win against Bournemouth. The Blues were very convincing in their recent game against Nottingham Forest, although they finished with a point in a 1-1 draw.

Chelsea is currently in the top half of the English Premier League despite playing one game less. They have avoided defeat in more than sixty percent of their matches in the league and they have a good record against Manchester City at the Stamford Bridge.

Manchester City struggled in their last game against a poor Everton side. The Citizens dropped points in a draw at home to the Merseyside outfit and they are falling behind in the title race. Manchester City has failed to keep a clean sheet in their last three games in all competitions, conceding four goals in that period.

Pep Guardiola's team has not been formidable as they were last season with recent losses to Brentford and Liverpool FC in the league. Manchester City is averaging a goal conceded per game and with Ruben Dias out for the citizens, their defense isn't going to be top notch. Chelsea can definitely get a win or draw against the Manchester City.

In the previous six visits to the Stamford Bridge, Manchester City has won just twice while Chelsea avoided defeat on four occasions. The Blues need to pick if they are to keep their hopes of a top four spot alive. Backing Chelsea to win or draw (+0.5) is the best available option in this fixture.

切尔西将在英超联赛中迎战曼城。蓝军在这场比赛中拥有主场优势，自赛季开始以来他们还没有输过一场比赛。支持东道主在正常时间内至少与曼城打成平局是本场比赛最好的选择。

英超联赛第19轮将于周四在伦敦斯坦福桥举行，届时曼城将迎战切尔西。

格拉汉姆·波特的切尔西在世界杯后取得了巨大的进步。他们上次在斯坦福桥以2:0战胜伯恩茅斯，得到了全部三分。蓝军在最近对阵诺丁汉森林的比赛中表现得非常令人信服，尽管他们在1-1战平中只得了1分。

切尔西虽然少踢了一场比赛，但目前仍处于英超联赛的上半区。他们在联赛中有超过60%的比赛避免了失败，他们在斯坦福桥对阵曼城有良好的记录。

曼城在上一场对阵实力不佳的埃弗顿的比赛中表现不佳。公民队在主场被默西塞德郡球队逼平后丢分，他们在冠军争夺战中落后。在过去的三场比赛中，曼城在各项赛事中未能保持零封，在此期间丢了4球。

瓜迪奥拉的球队不像上赛季那样令人生畏，他们最近在联赛中输给了布伦特福德和利物浦。曼城场均丢球，鲁本·迪亚斯缺席，他们的防守不会是一流的。切尔西绝对可以在对阵曼城的比赛中取得胜利或平局。

在此前6次造访斯坦福桥的比赛中，曼城只赢了2场，而切尔西则有4次避免了失败。蓝军需要做出选择，如果他们想要保住前四的希望。支持切尔西赢球或打平(+0.5)是本场比赛最好的选择。
