CONFIRMED Starting Lineups – Man City vs Chelsea

Manchester City have the chance to go back on top of the Barclays premier league by defeating Chelsea but Blues will have another plan.
The 2012 champions have a perfect winning record at home and will again be favorites to win at Etihan.
Chelsea and Manchester City have easily got the two best squads in the league with quality in every position and that sitting on the bench as well.
Jose Mourinho’s men were able to earn all three points against City when the two sides met at Stamford Bridge.
However, they needed a lot of luck and City hold stronger cards now.
A win for the sky blues will lift them 6 points above Chelsea in the title race. A win for Chelsea will mean that only two points separate the top 3 teams making it all very intriguing.
It will be interesting to see the tactics both teams will utilize. Pellegrini’s men have won the last 8 league games mainly because of their blistering attack, surely the idea of scoring lots of goals won’t change much.
From Chelsea point of view, perhaps Mourinho will look to sit deep and play on counter attack.
Here are the confirmed starting lineups of Man City & Chelsea.
Manchester City: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany (c), Nastasic, Kolarov, Navas, Demichelis, Toure, Silva, Dzeko, Negredo
Chelsea: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry (c), Azpilicueta; David Luiz, Matic; Ramires, Willian, Hazard; Eto’o
