MATCH OF THE WEEKEND: MAN CITY VS CHELSEA
Over the last few weeks, the
engrossing Premier League title race has taken centre stage during the
weekend's drama.
This weekend, however, expect two
giants to steal the headlines, when Chelsea host Manchester City at Stamford
Bridge.
The battle is a head to head between
the fallen heavyweights of the Premier League—and still its reigning
champions—and the side who remain the division's last great hope in the
Champions League.

The Citizens head into the weekend's
game on the back of their magnificent midweek triumph over Paris Saint-Germain.
While the French champions saw off
Guus Hiddink's Chelsea in the Round of 16 to advance to the final eight,
Laurent Blanc's side were unable to do the business against the Sky Blues.
