The all-English Championship League final. Will it be Manchester City or Chelsea crowned champions on Saturday? 

Manchester City v Chelsea

Premier League champs Manchester City are looking to win the Champions League for the first time.

The Match

They’ll be up to 16,500 people inside Porto’s Estadio do Dragao ground to watch. 

The final will be decided on the day, with 30 minutes of extra time and then penalties if required.

Both Chelsea and Manchester City will be allowed five substitutions, a sixth permitted for each side if they go into extra time. 

The VAR system will be used. 

Manchester City have been designated the ‘home’ team so will play in their traditional colours of sky blue and white. 

Saturday’s final will air in over 200 countries, the opening ceremony will take place 10 minutes before the game kicks off. 

City’s Pep Guardiola

If City wins, it’ll be the third time Guardiola has won the Champions League as the Spanish boss steered Barcelona to wins in 2009 and 2011.

Tuchel is seeking his first Champions League success. Last season he got to the final with Paris St-Germain but lost to Bayern Munich.
