Its a Monday and with it comes a massive match that will be taking place at the Etihad Stadium tonight. I bet all the football lovers around the world are yearning for this  encounter as the premier league race goes overdrive.Huge stakes at hand for both sides, a win for either side might prove very crucial and might just determined the destiny of this season's title.A win for Man City will move them six points clear above Chelsea and remove Chelsea in the Title race. Yes i think Chelsea might not recover to win the title for the simple reason Chelsea appears to be the only team capable of taking away points from the free scoring Manuel Pellegrini’s side if the round one losses to Arsenal, United and Liverpool are anything to go by.Maybe Liverpool fans might mummer thanks to the Raheem's Sterling disallowed goal.  So is today's match a title decider? I bet in some sense it is because if City Win tonight  the go back to the summit of the table and there on with three remaining fixtures against  Liverpool, Arsenal and Man United, i cant envisage City dropping  more than three points in those three matches. I do agree with the Champions league resuming in two weeks time there will be fixture  congestion especially with City gunning for all Trophies and that might throw a spanner in the quarks.The relegation battle might also play apart in the title race as teams fighting relegation will copy the West Ham approach just to rescue every possible point.The easy with which City have brushed off sides raises no doubts of Man City chances of continuing with their procession towards the Title.
Remember am diehard  Chelsea  but i guess my opening views do very little to confirm that.Ok, lets look at what a win for Chelsea would mean. Wow! that would be fantastic if Chelsea can mastermind a win and end City's unblemished home record in the league. That is quite an ask for Chelsea but if there is a team who  can do it, it has to be a  Jose Mourinho  led side as he enjoys an impressive record against Mr Pellegrini.Chelsea have to take heart from their 2-1 win early in the season and City's inability to keep clean sheets. those two factors have to good source for motivation for the chelsea players. Jose has very quick to play his customary mind games trying to relieve the pressure from his players and weather or not that pays off only after the fat lady sing's will the judgement be rendered.
I imagine everyone is looking forward to a fascinating nighty minutes of football but i would caution you to hold your horses especially with the stakes being extremely very vital for both sides. I think both managers would gladly take a point each if it were given to them now but we the fans would miss out on the big battle.Are Man City on a revenge mission?I think the calm and collected Chilean will approach them game with the focus it deserves knowing very well that the Stamford loss was self inflicted but i win  tonight would surely make up for that nights disappointments in double folds. Jose has been quick stating that his team will be going out for a a win but that is typical Mourinho falsehood for the simple reason he does not want to lose and have more points to chase. We saw it at the Emirates stadium and the rebranded Old Trampford. My predictions have been wayward so far but am still talking to my football gods for some anointing and therefore i go for a 2-2 draw.
