MATCH FACTS
Head-to-head
Manchester City have won the last three meetings in all competitions, including this season's Community Shield, without conceding a goal.
This will be the 161st meeting of the sides in all competitions. City can win four consecutive games against Chelsea for the first time.
Chelsea have lost only four of their 21 Premier League home matches against Manchester City, but two of those defeats have come in the last three seasons.

Chelsea
Chelsea began this Premier League campaign with five consecutive victories, but they have won only four of their subsequent 10 fixtures.
The Blues are unbeaten in all eight home league fixtures this season but have drawn three of the past five.
They have not lost a Premier League home game against the reigning champions in 11 attempts since being defeated by Manchester United in 2002 (W5, D6).
A team managed by Maurizio Sarri has not lost consecutive league matches since October 2016, when Napoli were beaten by Atalanta and Roma.
Eden Hazard has failed to score in his last 11 appearances for club and country.

Manchester City
Manchester City are unbeaten in 21 league games since April, winning the last seven.
They are unbeaten in their last 14 away league matches (W11, D3) - they have never gone 15 without defeat in the top flight.
Since the beginning of last season, Pep Guardiola's side have earned 34 points out of a possible 42 against the other established top-six teams. Chelsea have only managed half as many points.
They could become the first club based outside London to win seven consecutive top-flight fixtures in the capital. They have equalled the record of six in a row, set by Portsmouth from December 1950 to December 1951.
Raheem Sterling, who turns 24 on the day of the game, has failed to score and provided only one assist in nine league appearances against Chelsea.
