Firstly, they eliminated them with a 1-0 win in the FA Cup semi-finals, which ended a chance of an historic quadruple.With neither team playing their strongest XI, Chelsea won 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League at the start of May.Despite this, Manchester City are currently 1/1 favourites to win the Champions League final in 90 minutes .Guardiola has not won the Champions League since his second succe s Ty Isaac Jersey with Barcelona in 2011 and this is the trophy City have been most eager to win since their first Premier League title back in 2012.Thomas Tuchel cant make any mistakes as Chelsea manager at the moment, taking them back into the top four, reaching the FA Cup final and surprising many by taking the Blues to their second-ever Champions League final since replacing Frank Lampard.Team NewsCity dont have any injuries currently but do have a couple of Premier League fixtures to play between now and the trip to Turkey at the end of the month.This could give Guardiola time to get Sergio Aguero back to full match fitne s and Raheem Sterling back in form to give him more options to choose between for his final starting XI of the season.Mateo Kovacic is the for Chelsea. The Croatian midfielder has been sidelined for the past 10 games with a hamstring injury, leaving him a doubt for the final.Jorginho, NGolo Kante and Mason Mount have all been excellent in the middle of the park in recent weeks in his absence.Predicted Line-upsMan City (4-2-3-1): Ederson; Kyle Walker, John Stones, Ruben Dias, Joao Cancelo; Rodri, Ilkay Gundogan, Kevin De Bruyne; Riyad Mahrez, Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden.Chelsea (3-5-2): Edouard Mendy; Andreas Christensen, Thiago Silva, Antonio Rudiger; Cesar Azpilicueta, Jorginho, NGolo Kante, Mason Mount, Ben Chilwell; Kai Havertz, Timo Werner.Key BattlesMan City attack vs Chelsea defenceChelsea have largely coped with Citys forwards Maurice Hurst Jersey in their two recent meetings but to do it in the Champions League final would be the ultimate. Guardiola has a wealth of talent to pick from, both in the starting XI and off the bench.A front three of Foden, Mahrez and Silva could be the choice, but Aguero and Sterling still have a chance to impre s in the final Premier League games of the season., but Jesus would be a surprise selection.Chelsea attack vs Man City defence this season compared. The Portuguese centre-back has been a great leader, but dont forget that both John Stones and Kyle Walker could start the final and are prone to mistakes.Although Werner and Havertz dont have a huge number of goals in their debut campaign with Chelsea, the German pair have seen a number of chances this season. They only need Kenny Allen Jersey to score one at the end of May.Kevin De Bruyne vs NGolo KanteChelsea will have a near-impo sible mi sion of keeping Citys attack quiet in Turkey. The Citizens have had more efforts in their last two meetings, 27 shots Michael Schofield Jersey in all.But theyve limited the number of clear-cut chances and held them to one goal in those 180 minutes combined.In order to limit the great chances that the favourites get they will be wanting to limit the space that former player De Bruyne gets in and around the penalty area. This is likely to be Kantes job.PredictionThe last two meetings between these two make you wonder if Citys current price will increase between now and the final given that Chelsea have come out on top on both occasions.Any injuries to either side between now and then may have a further say but the Blues have every reason to go into the final full of confidence.This game will be decided by a moment of magic and City edge their opponents in the number of match-winners they have.Prediction: Manchester City 1-0 Chelsea.
