Chelsea travel to the Etihad Stadium this Sunday with the seemingly impossible task of slowing down Manchester City’s march to the Premier League title.

Arsenal were the latest victims to suffer at the hands of Pep Guardiola’s side, suffering back-to-back 3-0 defeats in the space of five days, and Chelsea must now prepare themselves for what could be a similar experience.

City saw out an impressive 1-0 win against Chelsea in September of last year but in the comforts of their own stadium the side will be looking to put their rivals to the sword.

The hosts will be without Fernandinho and Raheem Sterling through injury while David Luiz has been ruled out for Chelsea.

What time does it start?

The game kicks off at 4pm on Sunday 4 March at the Etihad Stadium.

Where can I watch it?

The game will be broadcast on Sky Sports Premier League. Coverage starts at 3.30pm.
