According to Tuchel, Chelsea has to accept that “there is a gap between us and Manchester City, If you look at the fixture in the Premier League and the fixtures in the last years we have to accept this.

“And it’s important that we accept this without making ourselves too small. We have to admit there is a gap but for 90 minutes we are very self-aware and very self-confident that we believe we can close the gap tomorrow for one game.”

While Tuchel has had 5 chances to defeat a team led by Guardiola, the German has failed every single time, and according to him, the ex-Barça boss has a ” huge influence” on him.

“When he was coach at Barcelona I didn’t have the chance to know him personally, but I was watching almost every game,” Said Tuchel about Guardiola, however, Chelsea fans would hope the German would put aside his admiration for Guardiola and secure a victory for them.
