Chelsea, Man City in topof-the-table clash
Chelsea and Manchester City face off at Stamford Bridge this afternoon in a tantalising top-of-the-table Premier League clash.
Both sides come into the game on the back of impressive Champions League victories during the week and will be brimming with confidence as a result.
Home side Chelsea are currently third in the division with 13 points from their first six games and victory would see them draw level with City, who, along with Manchester United, are leading the way.
David Luiz will miss the game due to suspension following his red card against Arsenal, while new signing Danny Drinkwater remains out with an injury.
Pedro is carrying a minor injury, but the Spain international was deemed fit enough to take his place on the bench against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, so could feature.
Benjamin Mendy will play no part in the game after sustaining a knee injury and the France international is expected to miss a lengthy period. Vincent Kompany is recovering from an injury to his calf and is unlikely to feature for City again until after the October international break.
Potential starting XI: Chelsea: Courtois; Cahill, Christensen, Azpilicueta; Alonso, Zappacosta, Kante, Bakayoko, Fabregas, Hazard; Morata.
Potential Man City starting XI: City: Bravo; Walker, Danilo, Otamendi, Stones; Fernandinho, De Bruyne, D. Silva; Sterling, Jesus, Aguero.
