Pochettino Promises Chelsea Will Attack Man City At The Etihad

Manchester City have lost just one Premier League game at the Etihad Stadium in almost two years.

The two sides served up a Premier League classic in November, with a topsy-turvy game ending 4-4 at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea could climb up to seventh with a win while Pep Guardiola's side are looking to maintain their title push with a victory of their own.

“The lesson (from the first game) is that we’re going to face one of the best teams in the world, but at the same time you need to be brave enough to try to force them to defend, to run back and to face their goal,” he said.

“If we go there and wait to see what’s going on, it’s a team that can dominate you and will make you suffer.

“The most important thing we realised is that we need to attack, be able to run and to make the effort all together.

“The most important thing is to go there and be brave, to challenge them.”
