Manchester City, the king of the EPL, has been winning 11 consecutive matches and is determined to win 3 points at home against Chelsea. City's recent schedule is tight, and they have a bye against Brentford in 3 days, so I believe they will take advantage of their home field power to attack, and try to lay the foundation for a win as early as possible, so as to avoid wasting too much energy in the second half, so a home win in half time is worth backing.

Manchester City's "victory engine" has been running at full speed, beating Copenhagen 3-1 in the midweek UEFA Europa League, winning 11 matches in a row in all competitions, so their focus can be back on the Premier League competition. City are still two points behind table-topping Liverpool, but have played fewer matches to take the lead in the race for the top spot, and the return of Giovanni Dibny to the club has boosted the team's firepower to a new level with his goals and assists.
The "Blue Moon" has a strong home field presence and can often force opponents to make mistakes in the first half of the game, forcing them to score a goal. 5 out of their last 6 home games have seen them take the lead at halftime, making the attacking style of play very effective.
