# [WATCH LIVE HD] Manchester City vs Chelsea live stream: 2023

Manchester City and Chelsea go head-to-head for the second time in four days as they clash in the FA Cup this afternoon. 
The teams also met in the Premier League last Thursday when City edged to a 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge thanks to Riyad Mahrez’s second half tap-in.

Today’s fixture is being played at the Etihad Stadium with both managers expected to make changes to the starting line-ups. 
Pep Guardiola is expected to start World Cup winner Julian Alvarez while the likes of Cole Palmer and Stefan Ortega should feature. 
Meanwhile, Graham Potter’s men have a midweek match versus Fulham on the schedule so Chelsea may choose to rest key players as 
they attempt to regain some form in the Premier League.

The Blues have reached the final of the FA Cup in each of the last three seasons but have, improbably, failed to win any of those games. 
They lost out to Liverpool in a penalty shootout last season after previous defeats to Leicester in 2021 and Arsenal in 2020. City’s 
most recent triumph in this competition came in 2019 and they’ll want to go on another decent cup run this time around.

Event details:
NAME: Chelsea - Manchester City
DATE: 8 Jan 2023
TIME: 20:00 UTC
VENUE: Stamford Bridge, London, England

Manchester City welcome Chelsea to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon (4:30pm GMT) for an FA Cup third round tie, having already  
Graham Potter's side 1-0 in the Premier League on Thursday.

Pep Guardiola will be hoping his side can replicate their mid-week victory at Stamford Bridge when the two sides meet once again in the FA Cup. 
Although City fans will be cursing their luck at a third round draw against top-flight opposition, the league win earlier in the week will give 
the Blues confidence they can get the job done once more.

A second-half goal from Riyad Mahrez - after some dubious goalkeeping from Kepa Arrizabalaga - saw Guardiola's side claim all three points and 
reduce the deficit to league leaders Arsenal back down to just five points. The club's attention has now shifted away from their league campaign and 
back to knockout football.

City last lifted the trophy in 2019, thumping Watford 6-0 in the final at Wembley. Chelsea meanwhile have the unfortunate record of falling 
short at the final hurdle, reaching the last three finals of the competition - losing to Arsenal, Leicester and most recently Liverpool respectively.

Here's all you need to know ahead of Sunday afternoon's game.
