Manchester City Vs Chelsea – How the Blues May Line-up Against the Citizens Tomorrow

Last year’s runner-up in the EFL Cup, Chelsea, will play last year’s Premier League champion, Manchester City, on Wednesday night in the first round.

After losing to city rivals Arsenal in the league on Sunday, Graham Potter’s team will face a tough test in their midweek game.

Now, let’s look at how Potter might set up Chelsea for the EFL Cup game against Manchester City.

Edouard Mendy should stay in the starting lineup for the Blues, even though the defense is likely to change.

Kalidou Koulibaly will want to play again after sitting out the loss to Arsenal. Cesar Azpilicueta should move to the right wing-back position if this happens.

Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic are likely to start together in the middle of the field, so Mason Mount could move from midfield to attack.

Aubameyang might be taken off the field and replaced by Kai Havertz, who will likely play the central striker position because he hasn’t been very creative on offense lately.

Check the line-up below;

Chelsea’s possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Azpilicueta, Chalobah, Koulibaly, Cucurella; Gallagher, Zakaria, Kovacic; Ziyech, Broja, Pulisic
