It's an epic midtable showdown at Stamford Bridge, two teams level on points in 10th and 11th, separated by just five goals in goal-difference.

Seems a bit risky either way (especially with Badiashile and Chalobah on the bench), but I guess we’ll see.

Chelsea and Aston Villa clash at Stamford Bridge on Saturday and a win for the visitors will move them above Chelsea in the table.

The loss of Haaland is obviously a huge concern for City as he suffered a groin issue and did not play for Norway over the international break and returned to Manchester for treatment. It has been a glorious sunny morning here, but the clouds are bubbling up just as the action is about to on the pitch at the Etihad. Very attacking lineup from Liverpool and they are pressing very high up the pitch. I was right in the line with that in the press box here at the Etihad and thought that was offside. The rest of the team news is as expected. Liverpool a real threat on the counter, while Man City have been a little clunky but are still carving out plenty of chances sans Haaland. A wonderful ball over the top to Jota, who just stayed onside, and Salah finishes superbly. The Manchester City fans at the Etihad are now doing the Poznan. In the end this was a routine win for City as they’re now on 64 points, five points behind Arsenal who play later on Saturday against Leeds.

Then Marc Cucurella shoots well over from outside of the box. Enzo Fernandez is the latest to be shown a yellow card. There could be some minutes for N'Golo Kante today. Chelsea want a penalty for a handball. We have worked had to get him to this point. Potter will hope that his side can taste victory once again to kick off an April that will see the Blues play eight fixtures. The Blues lie level on points with the opponents but sit above them on goal difference heading into today's fixture. Joao Felix has a good chance but Emi Martinez is down well and saves it.
