In a highly anticipated Premier League clash, Manchester City is set to face Chelsea in the 25th round of the competition. The match will kick off at 7:30 PM at the Etihad Stadium.

This encounter is pivotal for the league standings this season, as any result for Manchester City other than a victory could widen the gap with league leaders Liverpool.

Armed with a streak of consecutive victories in both the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League, Manchester City faces a Chelsea side struggling to find consistent form, currently sitting 10th in the league with 34 points.

Heading into the 25th round, the rest of the league table sees Arsenal in third place, tied with Manchester City at 52 points. Tottenham occupies the fourth spot with 47 points, following a dramatic win over Brighton, while Aston Villa sits in fifth with 46 points. Manchester United rounds out the top six with 41 points after securing a victory against Aston Villa.
