Chelsea face Manchester City for the second time in four days today with Graham Potter's side travelling to the Etihad Stadium for a FA Cup Third round tie.
Pep Guardiola saw his side cut the gap on Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table on Thursday evening thanks to Riyad Mahrez's goal in a 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea showed positive glimpses against the English champions but couldn't find a breakthrough.
The Blues come into this afternoon's clash at a furrther disadvantage, with Christian Pulisic and Raheem Sterling being forced off with injury in the first-half against City - extending the list of absentees to 10.
