What is at stake?
As this post is being written before Arsenal’s meeting with Newcastle on Tuesday, it’s not yet known how far Man City will be behind the Gunners by the time of kick-off in the match against Chelsea.
However, City’s 1-1 draw with Everton on New Year’s Eve, coupled with a 2-1 defeat to Brentford ahead of the World Cup break, has left Pep Guardiola’s side with plenty to do if they want to win a fifth league title.
Chelsea’s recent run of results has left them eighth in the table ahead of the midweek round of games, with newly-appointed manager Graham Potter already appearing to be under pressure.
While Champions League qualification still remains possible, Potter will know that his side will need to start picking up wins sooner rather than later, if they wish to achieve that goal.
