Chelsea will be eager to bounce back from recent disappointment when they take on Manchester City in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night. This is undoubtedly the clash of the midweek, with the tournament set to lose one of its title favourites in the third round. Chelsea reached the final of this tournament last season before losing out to Liverpool in penalties. This time though it will be extremely difficult for them to get that far due to various reasons. Not only getting past Man City will be a difficult challenge but the Blues’ recent run of form has been extremely worrying.

Sitting seventh in the Premier League table, Chelsea have 21 points from 13 games. They have gone winless in their last four league games and have lost their last two matches. After losing to Arsenal at the weekend in front of their own supporters, Chelsea will be keen to bounce back at the Etihad. However, the job at hand will be extremely difficult. Manchester City are one of the in-form sides in the division and are sitting second in the league with 32 points from 13 games. They have enjoyed good run in the competition recently, hence Guardiola will hope for the same to continue this time as well.
