LIVE – Manchester City 3-1 Chelsea: Foden goal ends contest as home side bounce back

It has been a case of one step forward, two steps back for Manchester City this week.

Pep Guardiola’s men looked back to their best on Sunday in dispatching Ipswich 6-0 at Portman Road. But they reverted back to the frail side we have seen for much of the season in collapsing at Paris Saint-Germain in midweek, squandering a 2-0 lead to lose 4-2.

That result means they have to beat Club Brugge at the Etihad next week to avoid an early elimination from Europe’s top-tier competition.

Chelsea registered their first league in five outings over Wolves on Monday and will arrive in Manchester two points ahead of their opponents.
