Game Totals Prediction

From a tournament point of view, this match still matters, because Manchester City did not officially become the champion of England, and Chelsea did not guarantee a place in the top 4 of the table. But everything goes to the fact that both teams will remain in their places at the end of the championship. The head-to-head battle between Manchester City and Chelsea will definitely be central in the new round, but both teams will play against the background of fatigue after the toughest matches in the Champions League. Therefore, you can hardly expect a spectacular and productive game from your opponents, and the logical choice is to bet on the total of the match less than 2.5 goals for 1.69.
