At 2.6 expected goals, the 2.5 line is close to a toss-up (49% for the over).

How do the two teams set up?
Confirmed line-ups land about an hour before kick-off.
Home
Chelsea
Chelsea are built to control games. They should hold most of the ball at Stamford Bridge and pin Man City back for long periods.
Away
Manchester City
Man City are built to control games. They should hold most of the ball on their trip to Stamford Bridge and pin Chelsea back for long periods.
What would change our mind?
The developments we would react to before kick-off.
If Chelsea name a weakened XI
Rotation or a key absence would take several points off their win chance; check line-ups an hour before kick-off.
If Man City score first
The favourite has to chase, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.
If a red card comes in the first hour
Ten men changes the expected-goals picture entirely, whichever side it hits.
The story of Chelsea vs Man City
Chelsea take on Manchester City in front of their own fans, and the Wazir Win numbers lean Chelsea's way. The gap in expected goals (1.47 for Chelsea, 1.17 for Man City) is the clearest signal, and it is what produces our 44% for Chelsea. Man City's best route is to keep it level into the last half-hour, when the draw becomes a live result.
