There are quite a few interesting matches scheduled for Saturday, but the Manchester City - Chelsea battle is the obvious attraction, the rivals will play in the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
Manchester City
"Citizens" approach this meeting on the background of the fiasco in the Champions League, the team flew out of the tournament, losing to Real Madrid in a penalty shootout, although in game time Mancity looked better, to press the opponent failed. Now you need to keep your head up and fight for what's left, the club leads the championship, ahead of Liverpool and Arsenal by two points. It is no longer possible to repeat the treble of last season, although a "golden double" in England would look solid.
Chelsea
For the Aristocrats, the FA Cup is the main opportunity to embellish a disappointing season, it is not only a chance to take the trophy, but also a ticket to the European Cup. Chelsea are ninth in the league, three points behind the top-6, and they can't go any higher. Pochettino's men won their last match at home against Everton - 6:0. Already 12 games in a row in all tournaments Chelsea does not lose in regulation time, although the game is not all that stable.

- Rivalries crossed twice this season, both matches ended in a draw - 4:4 and 1:1.

Manchester City vs Chelsea Prediction
Although Mancity is the first in the protocol, the game will be held at the neutral stadium "Wembley" in London, which is more in Chelsea's favor. "Citizens" are considered favorites of this meeting, but it is unclear how the team will recover from the last failure. "Blues" will fight to the last, they certainly know how to resist the formidable Manchester. We risk betting on the exchange of goals.
