Pep Guardiola urged his Manchester City side to be on guard against a Chelsea team that has faced a tumultuous few days following their decision to part ways with coach Enzo Maresca.

The Blues’s Italian manager left after a month of turmoil, both on and off the pitch, despite having guided the team to the UEFA Conference League title and the FIFA Club World Cup crown last year. Replacing him in the Chelsea dugout for Sunday’s English Premier League clash against Guardiola’s men will be interim manager Calum McFarlane.
