Current English Premier League (EPL) leaders – Manchester City hosted Chelsea today at the Etihad Stadium in game-week-22 which ended in a narrow win for the Citizens. A goal from former Chelsea flop eight years ago who’s in his seventh season with the Citizens made that huge difference today.<\/p>\n

The Belgium talisman – Kevin De Bruyne’s dazzling solo goal extended their 12th Premier League win today as they are now 13-points in the gap between second-placed Chelsea in the EPL table.<\/p>\n

Manchester City boss – Pep Guardiola is without a recognized striker this season following the departure of Argentine frontman – Sergio Kun Aguero yet he has maintained the highest level of form with eighteen wins, two draws, and two losses in twenty-two outings.<\/p>\n

And in today’s game, they gave the current Champions of Europe no room as they outplayed them by 56 against 44 in ball possession, 11 shots against 4, 6 shots on-target against 1, and other relevant statistics. As for Chelsea boss – Thomas Tuchel, he has now lost twice in a row against Pep Guardiola and also has recorded only two clean sheets in 12 outings.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Per today’s result, Manchester City are now far the most favorite to win this season’s EPL title in a consecutive attempt. However, with much said, the only player who impressed for the Blues today was Frenchman – Malang Sarr.<\/p>\n

So the question asked is, can Chelsea ever match Manchester City after back-to-back defeats?.<\/strong><\/p>\n
