Recent form

Manchester City

Manchester City's recent form has been impressive, with four wins, one draw, and one loss in their last six matches. The Citizens have been particularly prolific in front of goal, scoring an astounding 24 goals in this period, averaging 4 goals per game. Their attacking prowess is highlighted by two high-scoring victories: an 8-0 thrashing of Salford City in the FA Cup and a 6-0 away win against Ipswich Town in the Premier League. Despite their goal-scoring feats, City have also shown defensive solidity, keeping three clean sheets. However, their recent Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, conceding four goals, suggests some vulnerability against top-tier opposition. The team's ability to score consistently is evident, with over 2.5 goals occurring in 83% of these matches, making them an exciting side to watch for neutral fans.

Chelsea

Chelsea's recent form has been somewhat inconsistent, with their last six matches yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The Blues have shown a propensity for high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring. Their 5-0 thrashing of Morecambe in the FA Cup stands out as a particularly emphatic victory, demonstrating their attacking prowess. However, Chelsea have struggled defensively, managing only one clean sheet in their last six matches and conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game. The team experienced a brief dip in form with back-to-back league losses against Fulham and Ipswich Town, but have since recovered, going unbeaten in their last three matches across all competitions. Despite their mixed results, Chelsea have maintained a respectable 4th position in the league table, showcasing their resilience and ability to compete at the top level.
