5 reasons why Chelsea will beat Manchester City

#4 Chelsea need top 4 boost

Chelsea lost 2-1 to Man United last week but must win against Man City to keep their top four hopes alive

The race to finish in the top four is gradually reaching its business end and Chelsea must act now or risk playing in the Europa League next season.

Playing against Manchester City at this point in time may not be the ideal fixture, but as it stands there is no turning back.

With Liverpool and Tottenham winning their matches on Saturday, the Blues have no choice than to also record a victory or contend with falling further behind in the top four race.

This is, therefore, bound to motivate the players to give their all in the Man City game.

Chelsea is currently five points behind fourth-placed Tottenham and would definitely be bent on staying within touching distance of Spurs – and that means they will do all they can to avoid defeat against the high-flying Manchester side.
