Mind you that Chelsea are in tenth position and they have only 15 points from 11 games which is a poor return for a club like Chelsea, they have also won only 4 games in ths EPL this season. Spurs would never have lost that game, but they went two men down and had to play for over 40 minutes with just 9 players, they also had a couple of injuries to important players. I don't think Chelsea are resurgent, neither are they improving, and if their fans think they are flying right now, they'd be brought back to earth when they face City this Sunday.

Chelsea hasn't changed even though they have signed an experienced manager like Pochettino. Their performance has not been consistent at all and it is true that their condition has been in a slump so far. Chelsea has changed coaches over the last two seasons, but this has not been able to make them recover and show good performance.

This week things will be very difficult for Chelsea. Manchester City, who are in their best form, will be very difficult to beat and I really believe Manchester City will maintain their position with a win. Chelsea is playing at home, but their probability of winning is very low which means there is a high possibility that Chelsea can be beaten due to the depth of the squad and their poor performance.

This fixture is going to be an interesting one. Both teams head into the game in contrasting places. Manchester City are top of the Premier League, winning nine of their 11 matches this season. While Chelsea have struggled to find their form and they’re, currently 10th on the EPL table with 15 points from 11 games so far. However, Chelsea will be approaching this particular game with a morale-boosting 4-1 win against Tottenham. Many will be writing off Chelsea as they see Manchester city as the better team but I don’t think Chelsea will have an underdog mentality heading into a tricky fixture. I have noticed something about Chelsea when they face top teams this season. They tend to play better compared to how they fare against mid teams. Despite their ups and downs this season, they somehow managed to played out a draw against Liverpool and Arsenal and beat Tottenham. Now they face Manchester city and somehow I feel they might still be lucky and get a point in this particular game too.
This is football and anything is possible.

Every football fan is writing off Chelsea
