Chelsea - Manchester City (14:30, Sport1)

A little less than four months ago, the two teams met in the Champions League final, where the Blues won 0: 1 and lifted the trophy. Disappointed Citizens have regained the Premier League title, and will now hope for revenge on Thomas Tuchel's side. Ilkai Gonduane may return from injury at City, the injured American Laporte and John Stones will continue to be absent. On the other hand, Christian Policic, who has been absent from Chelsea's last four games, may return, but is still in doubt. Who will open between the beams is Edouard Mandy, who will take the place of coffee.



Pep Guardiola's side finished their last league game 0-0, but scored two sixes in less than a week, defeating Leipzig 3-6 in a crazy game in the opening leg of the Champions League home stage, then crushing Vikomb 1: 6 en route to the eighth. League Cup final. Chelsea come in as the league leaders, with a three-point advantage over the visitors.



It will be another duel between Thomas Tuchel and Pep Guardiola on the lines.

The Chelsea coach has won the previous three meetings, but clarifies: "I do not pay too much attention to it, because I remember very well that they said in the past that I could not beat him."



Another speaker ahead of the meeting is blues midfielder Giorgini, who revealed in an interview with the Daily Mail that he almost signed for City.

"It was close, but in the end it didn't work out," the contact said.

"I am very pleased to have arrived at Chelsea in the end. It is a great club, the atmosphere here is amazing and I really enjoy it."

Manchester United - Aston Villa (14:30, Sport 2)

Both teams finished their way to the League Cup last week, but while Villa gave Fayette all the way to Chelsea and were relegated just after a penalty shootout, the Red Devils looked bad and lost 1-0 at home to West Ham, finishing their way to the factory.



However, in the league the situation of the Red Devils is quite good, as they share first place with Chelsea and Liverpool.

Now, the players of Ola Gunnar Solskjaer want to continue on the winning track in the Premier League.

Leicester - Burnley (17:00)

The Foxes have a bad start to the current season, and are counting two straight losses and three in the last four rounds.

In the League Cup however, Leicester did not get entangled and advanced to the quarter-finals after a 0-2 away win over Millwall in the Premier League.

Now, Everton want to come back to win, and could not have asked for a more comfortable opponent than the newcomer who has lost all of her games so far this season and is locking up the Premier League table.

The host will be missing five players due to injuries, including Jordan Pickford, Richarlison and Dominic Calbert-Loin.
