Is Manchester City vs Chelsea on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Premier League fixture

Manchester City face Chelsea in the Premier League with Pep Guardiola’s side looking to bounce back after another difficult defeat in midweek.

City’s 4-2 loss to PSG means that their future in the Champions League is in doubt, and the club’s upcoming run of games will add to Guardiola’s worries, with his side facing all of the rest of the top six in the next few weeks.

That run begins against a Chelsea side who are enduring their own struggles, with this week’s win over Wolves their first in five games.

Yet despite their lean runs, the pair sit fourth and fifth, with Enzo Maresca’s side just two points above their hosts.
