Prediction: Chelsea 1-2 Man City
Both sides have hit the ground running following the restart, but Guardiola will be desperate for his side to keep the title race going for at least another week.
Guardiola will not let his players forget that anything less than a win will hand Liverpool the title, and Chelsea's home record against big clubs is not exactly stellar this season.
