Manchester City

The Citizens endured a grueling encounter against Real Madrid in the Champions League. Pep Guardiola's side besieged Andriy Lunin's goal throughout the match but failed to secure victory in regulation and extra time. Ultimately, Real Madrid emerged triumphant in the penalty shootout. It's challenging to fathom the extent of fatigue and emotions the team endured on Wednesday, with an equally emotionally charged showdown in the FA Cup looming ahead. Last weekend, City secured a commanding victory against Luton (5-1). Coupled with the slip-ups of their competitors, this win propelled them to the summit of the Premier League. Currently, Manchester City leads their closest rivals by two points and stands a strong chance of clinching the title.

Chelsea

The Blues can only dream of being in the title race, much like their hopes of securing a European berth. Despite investing a substantial amount in bolstering their squad, Chelsea finds themselves stagnant, failing to progress. In the league, they languish in ninth place, trailing Tottenham by a considerable 13-point margin. However, the London side has notably improved their recent performances. For instance, in the league last weekend, they trounced Everton 6-0 at home, extending their unbeaten streak in the Premier League to eight matches (four wins and four draws).

Interesting Match Facts and Head-to-Head History

• In the league, the teams played out two draws this season – 4-4 in London and 1-1 at the Etihad.
• Prior to this season, Chelsea had failed to score against City in seven consecutive matches.
• In January 2023, the teams met in the early stages of the FA Cup, where Manchester City secured a 4-0 victory.

Manchester City vs Chelsea Prediction

We believe that despite fatigue and emotional depletion, Pep Guardiola will manage to inspire his team for the semifinal clash. Our bet is "Manchester City to win" with odds of 1.68.
