    FT: Man City 1-0 Chelsea! All over at the Etihad and KDB's goal 20 minutes from time gives Guardiola's men a deserved win. Man City were the better team all the way through, but after a solid defensive display in the first half, Chelsea were unable to do the same in the second. Tuchel's men did little going forward and just had Lukaku and Werner chances in the second half. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!

  • 63'
    KDB!!! The Belgian goes for goal and Kepa tips out to his right!
  • 62'
    Grealish goes down just outside the box and Man City win the free-kick. I think he made the most of contact with Kante.

  • 59'
    KDB is penalised for a clear foul.

    Man City get themselves a corner. It's a lively second half!
  • 55'
    Sterling goes down wanting a penalty and the ref is about to point to the spot, but the linesman raises his flag for offside! I actually don't think it was a pen either as Sterling dived into Alonso.
  • 52'
    Free-kick to Man City just outside the box.

  • 46'

  • 45'
    HT: Man C 0-0 Chelsea! Half-time at the Etihad and it's a very fair score. Man City have been the better team, but Chelsea have defended solidly. The only clear chance was Grealish's just before the break which saw Kepa make a fine save. Apart from that, there's been little goalmouth action. Back for more shortly!
  • 45'
    One extra minute.
  • 43'
    KDB! Grealish gets into the area, he passes back to KDB whose strikes flies over!
  • 41'
    Pulisic is caught by Cancelo, but he's ok though.
  • 39'
    Grealish!!! What a chance for Man C and it's a great save by Kepa! Kovacic makes a stupid lateral pass at the back, Grealish intercepts just outside the box and Grealish's shot is deflected behind by the GK's leg! Grealish should've scored.
  • 38'
    Vital defence by Rudiger as he cuts out KDB's centre for a corner, but the Belgian was offside.
  • 37'
    Another corner for the hosts.
  • 35'
    No major chances here up to now and this looks it will be goalless at the break.
  • 32'
    Alonso gets his boot to the free-kick and it's a corner.
