Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount have been ruled out for Chelsea, but Thomas Tuchel has confirmed that goalkeeper Edouard Mendy is fit again and will start. Chelsea has only surrendered one league goal this season, their lowest total since 2010 when they were defeated 1-0 by Manchester City in their sixth encounter. They have maintained 15 clean sheets in 24 Premier League games under Thomas Tuchel, more than any other club since he came over.
Since a 5-3 loss to Arsenal in 2011, the Blues have gone undefeated in 91 top-flight home matches in which they led at halftime (W75, D16) Only RomeluLukaku has scored more than one Premier League goal this season for Chelsea, who have a league-high ten different scorers (excluding own goals). Lukaku has five goals in 16 league and cup appearances versus Manchester City, although he hasn’t scored in four games in a row (all with Manchester United).

For the first time under Pep Guardiola, Manchester City is in danger of failing to score in back-to-back league matches. The city has failed to score in two of their five Premier League games this season, the first time they did so in at least three of their first six games since Stuart Pearce took over in 2006. If City loses, they will have its lowest point total at this point since 2013, when they won the title despite only scoring 10 points in their first six games. In his managerial career, Guardiola has lost eight times to Chelsea, more than any other team, including four times at Stamford Bridge.
Ederson, K. Walker, R. Dias, N. Aké, J. Cancelo, Fernandinho, K. De Bruyne,P. Foden,G. Jesus, J. Grealish, Ferran Torres
For the first time since an eight-match stretch between 2005 and 2009, Chelsea has won four straight games against Manchester City in all competitions. The city is vying to win back-to-back games at Stamford Bridge in the top flight, a feat they last achieved in 1955. Chelsea has won five of the last twelve Premier League matches, while City has won seven. Our prediction is that the match will end in a tie.
