Man City - 1/3
Draw - 9/2
Chelsea - 15/2

• City over 2.5 goals, City to win to nil -10/3 with Betfred
• Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne to score - 7/2 with Betfred

Chelsea have conceded 40 goals in just 24 matches this season which doesn't bode well coming up against City, who have scored the most in the league so far.

City are on a good run against the Blues at home as well, winning six of their last eight against them but also keeping a clean sheet in five.

City have beaten Everton, Brentford, Burnley, Newcastle, Sheffield United and Everton again in a row in the Premier League and could make it seven straight wins as they bounce back to claim first in the league.

Chelsea have conceded four against Liverpool and four when losing to Wolves in quick succession earlier this month and with Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne back to full fitness and returning from their respective injuries, they could add quite a few to the score line this weekend.

City are on long winning streak and do well against the Blues, so there could be a few goals in it for City while Chelsea may just struggle again as they sit tenth in the league.

As above, there's a real possibility that City can get a few goals in this clash with them scoring plenty all the while Chelsea are conceding quite a few, even recently.

The top goal scorer of the league is in fine form since returning from injury after it took the striker a game or so to get back into the swing of things.

City are set to continue their streak of keeping a clean sheet against Chelsea and winning against them and this bet is a huge price considering the two team's differing forms.

Haaland scored twice against Everton in their 2-0 win at home last weekend and they were also in great form with plenty of chances in the Champions League on Tuesday night against Copenhagen.

De Bruyne was also on the scoresheet there and he can also continue his fine form since returning from injury just a couple of games ago.

They often compliment each other as De Bruyne has assisted Haaland many times over the last season and a half and they're tough to play against when they're in this scoring form.
