Pep Guardiola is a happy man heading into the Chelsea game this weekend as his team has been given an injury boost.

Raheem Sterling could be back for Manchester City’s top of the table clash with Chelsea after returning to training following a knee injury. The England international got an injury during City’s 2-1 win against Burnley on Saturday, sparking concerns he would miss the game against Chelsea.

Guardiola is now buoyed by the fact that he could have a full squad to choose from to play Chelsea.

Just last week he declared Conte’s side were the Premier League’s best – and also admitted City would have to unlock Chelsea’s ‘secret’ if they are to be successful in that game.
