Fine save to tip Fernandinho's header over the bar. One has to ask how the City skipper was given so much space in the area. 20:32Alan SmithNot greatPretty ordinary start to this one. City have been on top since the start but no real chances aside from Kepa's doziness almost allowing Silva in. Chelsea dominated possession in the reverse fixture but there is no sign of that yet with far too many long balls in the direction of Pulisic, who isn't exactly a dominant physical presence. 20:31Tashan Deniran-AlleyneKepa almost punishedKepa tries to emulate Ederson but his distribution isn't on the Brazilian's level just yet. The Spaniard's sloppy ball gifts a chance to Silva and fortunately for the home side Antonio Rudiger is on hand to make a clearance.
A fantastic strike from Kevin De Bruyne gives Kepa no chance.

Chelsea vs Manchester City: How to watch live, stream link Chelsea hosts Manchester City at Stamford Bridge on Thursday as two Premier League heavyweights collide as they hope to get back on
Chelsea vs. Manchester City: Date, time, live stream and how to watch | DAZN News South AfricaThe teams meet on Matchday 19 of the Premier League season. Chelsea head into Thursday's match against Manchester City firmly in the midtable. The Blues are 10th in the Premier League, a full 10 points behind fourth-place Manchester United and nowhere near where they would have expected to be at this point in the season. Chelsea started 2023 with a draw (1-1 at Nottingham Forest) and are now looking to grab their first win of the new year. Of course, the opposition will play a big part in whether the Blues can walk away with three points for the first time in 2023, and City have been a thorn in the Londoners' side in recent years — especially at Stamford Bridge, where City have won back-to-back league matches (as part of winning seven of the teams' last 10 Premier League meetings).
