UEFA Champions League Final 2021: Manchester City vs Chelsea Preview

English football fans were devastated this week when Manchester United ended up losing to Villarreal in a nail biter that went down to an extended penalty shootout. British fans have another exciting game to watch on May 29 as Manchester City will play Chelsea to see who will win the Champions League trophy.

The final was earlier scheduled to take place in Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey but it was shifted to stadium Estádio do Dragão in Portugal due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The organizers are limiting stadium attendance to thirty three percent, which will allow up to 16,500 fans to be present.

Manchester City and Chelsea have both been given a total of 6,000 tickets each for their supporters to show up and cheer them on. Spanish referee Antonio Miguel Mateu Lahoz will be in charge of this game and the video assistant referee (VAR) system will be used.

Man City has been in tremendous form winning 53 out of their 60 games with a 131-41 goal tally in their 60 games. The Citizens won the EFL Cup and the Premier League and are now looking to win their first Champions League trophy.

Pep Guardiola has done an excellent job with City and was instrumental behind their 21 win streak this season. He knows he has a tough task on his hand because 2 out of the 7 losses that Man City experienced were at the hands of Chelsea.

The key players for Man City are Ruben Dias, Phil Foden and Kevin De Bruyne.

Odds: 1.91

Chelsea will shrug off the underdog betting tag and go into this game confident as they know they can beat Manchester City and their star studded line-up. Chelsea will most likely go with their usual defensive strategy as head coach Thomas Tuchel has shown a preference to defend and wait for their opponents to make a mistake and then capitalize.

Chelsea will dearly want to score the opening goal and put more pressure on Man City.

The players that you need to watch out for are Callum-Hudson-Odoi, Kurt Zouma, Kepa Arrizabalaga and Kante.

Odds: 4.40
