Difficult.

[City64]

One of our greatest ever performances that last season , the chavs hardly had a kick on their own pitch awesome city / pep masterclass ! Huge game for us Saturday night get 3 points there and we will be unstoppable imho , Chavs have just hit the buffers at the wrong time and have fallen off the pace , they are dangerous however . Lots of respect for their manager Sarri , he is pals with Pep and always pays us lots of respect and plays football the right way . Im off to Berlin for a few days tomorrow , I am sure I will find a bar to watch the game whilst consuming several of Germany,s finest pilsners !

Expecting us to be in 2nd by the time we kick off which should provide all the motivation required. Lot of respect for Chelsea and their manager - he will have them playing football and give us a game but we will terrorise Luiz and their shaky defence

Berliner Kindl is the way to go mate. Great lager!
And don't forget to have some Döner Kebab. Best in Europe.

I watched them against Fulham last weekend and they were very sloppy in possession. They repeatedly gave the ball away in midfield but got away with it. Hopefully if they do the same against us we'll punish them.

Cannot shake my bad feeling about this one.

[Outcast]

Cannot shake my bad feeling about this one.

Me too, but I'd rather have that feeling than over confidence, everyone is expecting chavs to bounce back and get something out of it. We are not by miles clear favourites especially with Aguero and KDB ruled out. I'll take a draw.

Kev and Sergio out according to ssn

Kev and Sergio out according to ssn

Yeah, unfortunately, Pep confirmed them both to be out at the press conference. Could have done with Sergio for this one I think.

[Saul Goodman]

With those two out we really need Sane, Sterling, and the Silvas to step up. Cant rely on Jesus at the moment

[nottsblue]

Can see Sterling Sane and Mahrez as our front three tomorrow, each interchanging as they see fit just to confuse Chelsea’s defence

I can see it too, but would prefer Sané/Jesus/Sterling. I think Leroy and Raheem work better off a striker.

[Mase]

Jesus is going to score the winner.
