Manchester City vs Chelsea: Team News, Lineups, Injury Update and Kick-Off Time


 After some interesting UEFA Champions games during the mid-week, which saw the likes of Paris Saint-Germain, Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich advance to the semi-finals, the oldest cup competition is currently set to return to action this weekend.

Manchester City will currently focus their attention on the FA Cup after clashing out of the Champions League on Wednesday night. The Cityzens were beaten by Spanish giants in penalties at the Etihad Stadium. The defeat saw City's hope of another treble shattered, with the FA Cup and Premier League the only titles up for grabs. 

Chelsea, on the other hand, returned to winning ways, beating Everton 6-0 at Stamford Bridge. Cole was the star of the game as the Blues humiliated the Toffees in London. Pochettino's men will be keen on replicating the same performance against Manchester City at Wembley this weekend.
