Manchester City vs Chelsea

Manchester City have won more points from losing positions than any other side in the Premier League this season (17). Indeed, five of their 12 wins this term have come after conceding the first goal.

Having failed to win just two of their first eight away league games under Enzo Maresca this season (W6 D1 L1), Chelsea have now failed to win each of their last four on the road (D2 L2).

Ederson’s assist for Erling Haaland was his fifth for Manchester City in the Premier League – the joint-most of any goalkeeper in the competition’s history along with Paul Robinson.

Manchester City are unbeaten in their last seven Premier League games against Chelsea (W5 D2), since a 2-1 home loss in May 2021.

Chelsea have kept just one clean sheet in their last 16 Premier League away games against Man City (1-0 in February 2014), failing to score themselves on seven occasions in that run.

This is the latest into a Premier League campaign that Chelsea are facing Manchester City while above them in the table since 2016-17, when they won 2-1 at Stamford Bridge on MD30 en route to winning the title under Antonio Conte.

After a run of just one win in nine Premier League games from the start of November (D2 L6), Manchester City have now won three of their last four (D1). They’ve scored 14 goals in this run, more than they had in their previous 11 league games (13).

Manchester City have lost their last three Premier League games played immediately after a European midweek game, as many as they had in their previous 34 (W21 D10). The last time the Citizens lost four such matches in a single campaign was back in 2010-11.
