Information both Team :

  • Manchester City have managed to win just one of their past four Premier League encounters with Chelsea, losing two and drawing the other.
  • Chelsea won 10 of their first 12 away league games against the current champions, but City have won the last three clashes at the Etihad Stadium.
  • Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko has scored six goals in his last seven Premier League appearances.
  • The sides are well-matched, with City boasting this season's second-best home record, while the visitors have the second-best away form in the league, with Manchester United leading both tables.
  • Meanwhile, Chelsea's Frank Lampard (pictured) will be looking to score in his fifth consecutive league game for only the third time in his career (having previously done so in 2005 and 2010).
  • The Blues have been awarded eight penalties this season, the most in the Premier League, though their opposition today has, aside from rivals Manchester United, enjoyed the most spot-kicks in the league since the start of last season (14).
  • Fernando Torres will be looking to recover from a torrid recent spell of form if he features here, having scored just one in his last 13 games; against Sparta Prague on Thursday, he had more shots than anyone else on the pitch and not only did he fail to score, but only one of those was on target.
  • The Blues are 13th in the table when it comes to losing the lead in matches this season, having dropped 14 points from winning positions
