It’s derby day in England! Trying to pick up the pieces after an elimination for the Real Madrid already Champions Leagueo Manchester City takes the field this Saturday, at Wembley, to receive the Chelsea for the semi-final of FA Cup. The ball rolls at 1:15 pm (Brasília time). The other game takes place this Sunday, the 21st, between Coventry City and Manchester United.
What was already a bad week for Pep Guardiola’s team could get even worse. The players left the clash with the Spanish team in midweek shaken. While, on the other side, Mauricio Pochettino’s men are excited about the duel, coming off a crushing 6-0 victory in the Premier League over Everton and with the chance of reaching the final of the competition for the sixth time in eight seasons. City have conceded goals in the last five games, which raises a warning sign in the defensive sector.
Akanji, De Bruyne and Haaland are being evaluated after failing to complete the clash against Real Madrid. Nathan Ake, John Stones, Jeremy Doku, Julian Alvarez and Mateo Kovacic can be among the starters. At Chelsea, Raheem Sterling, Robert Sanchez, Axel Disasi, Enzo Fernandez and Levi Colwill are doubts for the match.
