Chelsea Vs Man City: Liverpool Top Table As Blues Lose At Home

UEFA Champions League winners Chelsea had their first English Premier League defeat against Manchester City on Saturday afternoon.

The Blues have dropped down to the third position on the league table, giving their rival, Liverpool, the chance of leading at the top with a game to be played in the evening (today).

Liverpool will be playing against Brentford and a win for the Reds will leave them stuck to the top of the EPL table with three points ahead of their rivals.

Naija News understands that Pep Guardiola’s side smacked Chelsea to 0-1 to revenge their Champions League final loss to the Blues.

Thomas Tuchel’s side gave City a tough time until Brazilian striker Gabriel Jesus put his side ahead in the 53 minutes.

Meanwhile, Chelsea manager, Tuchel is said to have expressed disappointment with the club’s move to sell Antonio Rudiger.
