Graham Potter has been handed a huge boost ahead of Chelsea's blockbuster Carabao Cup clash with Manchester City. Pep Guardiola's side are set to welcome the west Londoners to the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday November 9th, for the third round tie.
The Blues boss will be eager to get his hands on a first piece of silverware in his new role despite the tough draw. City have won the Carabao Cup four times from a possible five, with Liverpool beating Chelsea on penalties to clinch the title last season.
Potter will be hoping to avenge former head coach Thomas Tuchel's woes. And, the 47-year-old has been handed a huge boost in his efforts with Joao Cancelo now ruled out of the clash due to suspension.
