Is Man City vs Chelsea on TV today? Kick-off time, channel and how ... (The Independent)

Pep Guardiola and Graham Potter go head-to-head in the FA Cup having met in the Premier League just days ago.

Wes Fofana is another doubt but Carney Chukwuemeka could come into the team. Pep Guardiola is likely to rotate from his last league lineup so the likes of Rico Lewis, Cole Palmer and Stefan Ortega should start, as well as World Cup winner Julian Alvarez. Chelsea have been runners-up the three seasons since then and lost on penalties to Liverpool last May.

Manchester City vs Chelsea score predicted by simulation ahead of ... (Football.London)

Chelsea visit Manchester City in the FA Cup on Sunday afternoon, so we simulated the clash to try and predict the outcome.

FIFA 23 predicts that despite Chelsea's best-attacking efforts, City's forward line could prove too much for the Blues to handle, with Potter's side falling to a 4-2 defeat in the simulation. The game was then taken out of reach from Chelsea in the 86th minute, with Ilkay Gundogan providing the finish. As the game went on, City started to grasp control, and the hosts managed to score twice in the final 15 minutes to make it 4-2 and secure FA Cup victory. But, the lead didn't last long for the Blues, with Julian Alvarez scoring a quickfire double seven minutes after the goal to flip the game on its head and send City into the break 2-1 up. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang jinxed past Kyle Walker on the left before crossing into the box, and Hutchinson met the cross with a powerful volley that was saved by the knees of Stefan Ortega. The Blues were beaten on penalties in the FA Cup final last season, and Potter will be hoping his side can reach the final once again this season.

Pundits agree on Man City vs Chelsea FA Cup fixture (Manchester Evening News)

Manchester City host Chelsea in the FA Cup at the Etihad Stadium today, just days after their Premier League meeting in west London.

Last year's runners-up have reached four of the past five FA Cup finals, but they won't make it to Wembley this time." I think not but I do fancy both teams to ccore. But Chelsea, can they get something out of this? [BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64158968) column, Chris Sutton said: "Manchester City have not really hit their stride since the World Cup, and a few callers to 606 this week blamed Erling Haaland for that - saying their goals are not spread around the team anymore - which I thought was extraordinary. [How Man City should line up vs Chelsea in FA Cup third round clash](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-city-team-news-chelsea-25913468) Manchester City play Chelsea for the second time in four days this afternoon, and the pundits are predicting a similar outcome to Thursday's fixture.

Indeed his last club goal, separated by strikes against Poland and Australia plus a World Cup semi-final brace against Croatia, was for Manchester City against Chelsea: in the Carabao Cup in November. [Man City and Chelsea enter another edition of the new-money derby](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/chelsea-man-city-fa-cup-preview-b2257368.html) [Chelsea’s attempts to buy Fernandez have riled Benfica](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/enzo-fernandez-chelsea-transfer-benfica-coach-b2256748.html); if they end up triggering his release clause, it will cost £105m, though the Portuguese club bought him for just £8.8m. Enzo Fernandez was an Argentina teammate of Alvarez’s in Qatar; when the midfielder won the award as the World Cup’s best young player, perhaps it was at the striker’s expense. Julian Alvarez’s first start since the World Cup final could come for Manchester City against Chelsea on Sunday. He’s had ups and downs in the past and injuries but this is part of the process to realise what he needs, to be consistent.” Graham Potter’s Chelsea have won just one of their last eight Premier League matches with three draws and four defeats.

The stories were touching and humorous in equal measure, like the time Vialli and fellow Italian Gianfranco Zola wanted to thank Chelsea’s player liaison officer, Gary Staker, for helping them adjust to English life. Phil Foden, Bernardo Silva, Kyle Walker and Rodri are the ones who keep their places. City’s most recent triumph in this competition came in 2019 and they’ll want to go on another decent cup run this time around.

Welcome to Sportsmail's live coverage of Manchester City vs Chelsea in the FA Cup third round this afternoon. They were good against City in the week but were second best against Nottingham Forest last weekend and are proving to be a bit inconsistent under Potter.

This is the second time in three days they've faced off, but they also clashed in the Carabao Cup earlier this season, and still have to play each other in the league.

Gallagher obliges with a foul in the pantomime style and is booked. 73rd minute: He had a touch start to the season but all the swagger is back in Riyad Mahrez's play now. 87th minute: Bernardo Silva's fine play in the build-up to the penalty was his last act. The Blues have at least bolstered in the transfer market and will continue to do so. Riyad came on in the last game at Chelsea and was fantastic. Domestically, Chelsea have won two of their past 10 and one of the most recent eight in all competitions.

I thought they gave everything and showed their quality but we are disappointed we went out of the competition. His goal against them in the Carabao Cup in November now looks to have been a turning point. He was not playing at the level he is playing right now. “The FA Cup is a competition I love. At the same time, we struggled. Either way, it is the sort of problem that Potter would love to have. What a goal their third of the first half was. With that advantage, the confidence grew and Guardiola's side really started to purr. Graham Potter made six changes to the Chelsea team that were beaten by the same opposition on Thursday evening. If Chelsea could do little to stop that, the second was self-inflicted. Pep Guardiola's team can look forward to a tie at home to Arsenal if the Premier League leaders overcome Oxford United on Monday evening.

Had a brief foray at wing-back before returning to the middle of the pitch in the second period. Conor Gallagher - Showed glimpses of promises in winning the ball high up the pitch but like his midfield partners struggled to make an impact for much of the half. Fouled Phil Foden for Man City's second penalty and struggled to make his presence felt upon City's forwards otherwise. Kalidou Koulibaly - Not the most reassuring outing from the Senegal international as he kept his place for a fourth game in a row. The 19-year-old was moved to the left side of a back three for the second period and remained composed. 5. Did not look entirely comfortable trying to play the ball out from the side and improved as part of the back three in the second period. Unfortunately, Chelsea's backline had trouble breaking past Man City's press following that for the duration of the first half. Trevoh Chalobah - The defender made his first start since domestic football got back underway and started on the right of a back four. Kepa Arrizabalaga - The Spanish goalkeeper was always going to come under scrutiny after his decision to not claim Jack Grealish's cross on Thursday but found himself 2-0 down via a free-kick and a penalty. Generally solid across the 90 minutes. Bashir Humphreys - A promising start to his first outing when he dispossessed Bernardo Silva before playing a nice pass to Kai Havertz.

Match report as goals from Riyad Mahrez (2), Julian Alvarez and Phil Foden gave Manchester City a 4-0 win over Chelsea in the third round of the FA Cup; ...

I thought they gave everything and showed their quality but we are disappointed we went out of the competition. His goal against them in the Carabao Cup in November now looks to have been a turning point. He was not playing at the level he is playing right now. “The FA Cup is a competition I love. At the same time, we struggled. Either way, it is the sort of problem that Potter would love to have. What a goal their third of the first half was. With that advantage, the confidence grew and Guardiola's side really started to purr. Graham Potter made six changes to the Chelsea team that were beaten by the same opposition on Thursday evening. If Chelsea could do little to stop that, the second was self-inflicted. Pep Guardiola's team can look forward to a tie at home to Arsenal if the Premier League leaders overcome Oxford United on Monday evening. His curling free-kick from the right edge of the box arrowed into the top corner beyond Kepa Arrizabalaga's dive.
