Chelsea vs Manchester City: Team news, suspensions, injury worries

Premier League giants, Chelsea and Manchester City will

lock horns at Stamford Bridge on Saturday in a top-of-the-table clash.

The two clubs will go into the game on the back of Champions League victories at the mid week.

Antonio Conte’s men can move level with Pep Guardiola’s team with a win, which could be City’s first loss of the season.

Chelsea are currently third in the division with 13 points from their first six games with City and Manchester United leading the way.

Blues central defender, David Luiz will miss the game due to suspension following his red card against Arsenal, while former Leicester midfielder, Danny Drinkwater remains out with an injury.

Also Pedro may not be available as he nurses a minor injury, depending on doctor’s recommendation.

For Manchester City, right wing-back, Benjamin Mendy will play no part in the game after sustaining a knee injury and is expected to miss for a lengthy period.

Captain Vincent Kompany is on his way to full recovery from an injury to his calf and is unlikely to feature for City again until after the October international break.

The Saturday’s match between Chelsea and Manchester City is an encounter between two of England’s most in-form teams.
