Its that time of the season where the fixtures come in thick and thin, this is when team depth is important, all teams want their players fit as the season is gradually winding down.


And later today chelsea will go head to head, toe to toe with Manchester city for the semi finals of the english fA cup. Coincidentally these two teams are representing EPL in the ongoing UEFA champions league, meaning there is every possibility they can still meet at the Finals of this year's champions league, not forgetting that they will still meet at the league for the reverser fixture later next month.

Wow, it seems chelsea and man city still have some unfinished business, and to start with they will have to settle one this evening for a spot in the english FA cup final when they clash later today.


There is no doubt man city teams are delight to match playing some sexy football and they are getting the necessary results, top of the EPL table, they are in carabao cup final anand champions league semi final, and look like an unstoppable team. Having arguably the best manager in the world pep Guardiola with some incredible players.


  • Tuchel's chelsea also looks very dangerous, with Thomas building a team no one wants to play against, and one of the strengths of this chelsea team is that you never predict what their starting line up could be, Tuchel has given each and every member of the team chance to prove to themselves and i think that really helps the team confidence,

  • going forward to today's match properly, i expect a more attacking Manchester city team, dominating possession but at the same time they should be careful and wary of this chelsea side who looks disciplined and tidy in the defense and midfield. Well, one can say Chelsea's attacker have not really been formidable and bang in goals as expected. But chelsea have been finding ways to grind the results and go away with the 3 maximum points.

I will expect Chelsea to be a bit relaxed and sit deep so as to counter attack city's defense.


  • players to watch out for;
    For Manchester city, they need the brilliance of kevin de bruyne who will link up play between the defense and attack, ilkay gundogan can also be dangerous while rejuvenated mahrez can cause all sort of damage to any defense.

Chelsea will count on rudiger's brilliance at the back to stop city from scoring, mason mount who looks like Lampard heir can do the shooting from all angles while n'golo kante can do the hunting.


I will not be expecting so much goals in this fixture, but we're surely going to witness a match an intriguing one full of tactics, a tactical in depth Where no mistakes will be allowed.

I'm tipping chelsea to win this one considering pep's Manchester city team can be predictable with their style of play, if chelsea are disciplined enough and take their chances.
