Manchester City will take on Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League final on Saturday night. The two Premier League sides will lock horns in the most important match of the European football calendar at the Estadio do Dragao in Porto.
Manchester City have had a stunning campaign under Pep Guardiola this year and will be looking to claim a unique treble of English League Cup, Premier League and UEFA Champions League trophies.
Chelsea, on the other hand, have been a transformed side ever since Thomas Tuchel took over. The German tactician has made the London outfit extremely hard to beat and has already beaten Pep Guardiola's side in the FA Cup as well as the Premier League.
Although Manchester City will be the favorites heading into the Champions League final, the Blues will take confidence from their impressive recent performances against Pep Guardiola's side. It could be an extremely well fought final decided by fine margins.
