Chelsea had a promising outing against Manchester City, holding the Citizens to a draw ahead of the Carabao Cup final.

The Blues showcased resilience, taking an early lead through a clinical Raheem Sterling goal despite facing pressure from Manchester City under Pep Guardiola.

Following recent losses against Liverpool and Wolves, Chelsea has shown a renewed sense of fighting spirit, bolstering their confidence as they head to Wembley for the domestic cup final.

Despite the drawn result at Etihad Stadium, Chelsea’s recent form includes two wins and a draw in their last three away games, highlighting an upward trajectory.

Next on their agenda is a clash against Leeds in the quest for a quarter-final spot, amidst a congested fixture schedule.

Traveling to Brentford, a team they struggled against in the past, Chelsea will aim to rectify their previous defeat in the reverse fixture and secure vital points.

A trip to Newcastle, a side embroiled in a relegation struggle, presents Chelsea with an opportunity to consolidate their position in the middle of a closely contested Premier League table.

Looking ahead, the Blues will face Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, a formidable challenge as the Gunners pursue a title bid, while Chelsea seeks to disrupt their rival’s run.

With upcoming fixtures against Luton Town, Fulham, Nottingham Forest, and Manchester City on the horizon, Chelsea’s performance in the coming games will be crucial for their aspirations this season.
