TALKING POINTS

After all has been said and done over the last few days Chelsea have the chance to finish the weekend one point behind the current leaders, Manchester City. This is the sixth league trip for the Citizens - they have so far played two more home games than aways. Many supporters recognised that this would be a season of transition and that a top-four finish in May would represent an achievement. The Blues are actually 10 points up on last season in like-for-like games, but the champions finished 25 ahead on the final table. Beating City would haul back a title favourite and restore fragile confidence after a run of two
points gained from a possible 12 while only matching last season's result. The Londoners have a great record against the Mancunians at the Bridge,
winning six of the last seven meetings with an aggregate score of 18-5. Last season Raul Meireles cancelled out an early goal for the visitors before substitute Frank Lampard netted a late winner from the spot.

KEY STAT
Manchester City are the only one of the 92 league clubs yet to lose in the league this season...

My prediction Chelsea 2:1 Man City.
