The Citizens enter the contest after a 2-1 victory in the final minutes over Fulham in the Premier League. They were most of the game with just 10 men. It is visible the lack that striker Haaland makes for the team since when he is not active the team misses the top player up front, and there are not many dangerous submissions. Alvarez hasn't done this job very well. In this game I see some possibility for Haaland to enter, especially at the beginning of the second half to gain rhythm after recovering from his injury and this could be the key here for the Citizens to conquer the triumph.

Pep Guardiola will rotate the squad, as most major Premier League teams do in this League Cup tournament, but a few regulars are expected to play and some substitutes as well, maintaining top-notch quality for the opposition.

In addition, City's playing pattern will remain independent of the team and this is another factor that sets Chelsea apart.

Defender Joao Cancelo will have to serve the suspension and stay out. Walker remains injured and Haaland is doubtful, but he can enter the second stage.

In the Premier League, the team maintains good form and continues to put pressure on the leader Arsenal. The home game next weekend against Brentford. Travel time will be another favorable factor for them since they don't have to travel much between these two games.

Chelsea is leaving a little to be desired in the last few games since they haven't won in 4 games. Opponents weren't easy but they didn't show good performances either. A 1-0 derby defeat against Arsenal last weekend, before that tragic 4-1 loss to Brighton.

Coach Potter is also expected to rest some players, prioritizing the Premier League over the weekend when he visits strong and surprising Newcastle.

The big question is that, unlike the hosts, Chelsea doesn't have much to run from since they've been suffering serious consequences with the large list of injuries. Goalkeeper Kepa, defenders Fofana, James, and Chilwell are all out, in addition to midfielder and key player Kante who has been absent since August.

Midfielders Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic, both important players for the Blues gear are doubts, further increasing the difficulties of the visitors.

The coach will have to think a lot about the team he will play against City this Wednesday. We may have some different and new names. In addition, I don't see a good pattern in the team that allows the substitutes to replicate, so I see City with great chances to win and win well.

My probable score here is 2-0 3-0

在英超联赛最后几分钟以2-1战胜富勒姆后，市民队进入了比赛。在比赛的大部分时间里，他们只有10人。前锋哈兰德的缺位是显而易见的，因为当他不活跃的时候，球队失去了锋线的顶级球员，而且没有太多危险的传球。阿尔瓦雷斯的工作做得不太好。在这场比赛中，我看到了哈兰德的出场机会，特别是在下半场刚开始的时候，在他从伤病中恢复过来之后，他可以获得节奏，这可能是市民队赢得胜利的关键。

瓜迪奥拉将轮换阵容，就像大多数英超球队在联赛杯比赛中所做的那样，但预计会有一些主力球员和一些替补球员上场，为对手保持一流的水平。

此外，曼城的打法将保持独立于球队，这是另一个使切尔西与众不同的因素。

后卫若昂·坎塞洛将不得不接受禁赛，不能参加比赛。沃克仍然受伤，哈兰德的情况也不确定，但他可以进入第二阶段。

在英超联赛中，球队保持着良好的状态，并继续给领头羊阿森纳施加压力。下周末主场对阵布伦特福德。旅行时间对他们来说是另一个有利因素，因为他们不需要在这两场比赛之间往返太多。

切尔西在过去的几场比赛中有一些不尽如人意的地方，因为他们已经有4场比赛没有赢过了。对手并不容易，但他们也没有表现出良好的表现。上周末0 -1输给阿森纳，然后4-1输给布莱顿。

预计波特教练也会让一些球员休息，在周末他将访问强大的纽卡斯尔时优先考虑英超联赛。

最大的问题是，与东道主不同的是，切尔西没有太多可以逃避的事情，因为他们已经遭受了大量伤病的严重后果。门将凯帕，后卫法法纳，詹姆斯和奇尔韦尔都缺席了，除了中场和关键球员坎特，他从8月开始就缺席了。

中场球员乔尼尼奥和科瓦契奇都是蓝军的重要球员，这进一步增加了客队的难度。

这位教练将不得不考虑本周三对阵曼城的阵容。我们可能会有一些不同的新名字。另外，我在球队中没有看到一个好的模式，允许替补球员复制，所以我认为曼城有很大的机会赢球，而且赢得很好。

我的可能比分是2比0 3比0
