Man City vs Chelsea FC: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds
Should Arsenal lose to Nottingham Forest on Saturday, Pep Guardiola’s side would already have sealed a fifth title in six years as the champions close in on a famous treble.
Even if the Gunners win fewer than 24 hours before, one more City victory would do the job after a stunning run of form.
Having qualified for the Champions League final and with an FA Cup final to come, City will soon tick off the first of what they hope will be three trophies over the next few weeks.
Chelsea, meanwhile, are playing for very little. While interim manager Frank Lampard has talked about playing for pride, it’s difficult to see much in the way of it at the moment.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Manchester City vs Chelsea is scheduled for a 4pm BST kick-off time on Sunday 21 May, 2023.

Manchester City vs Chelsea team news
With the title still not won, Guardiola will surely go full-strength. Their final home game of the season, the City boss has done little to tinker of late and doing so now would perhaps send the wrong message.
Nathan Ake is still not fit, though there are not thought to be any fresh injury concerns.

Kalidou Koulibaly is back in training but not yet ready to return, while Benoit Badiashile is injured.
Manchester City vs Chelsea prediction
It would be foolish to look past City, particularly when they are playing a Chelsea team who cannot put much of a performance together.
Man City to win 3-1.
