In a financial league of their own

Chelsea vs Manchester City

Two clubs with unmatched wealth, with the possible exception of Spain’s top two.

Indeed, that explains why betting odds have so often made these two pre-season title favourites in Premier League betting.

For Spain’s El Clasico, read England’s El Cashico!

When you look at these two sides and the billions that have been poured into them, you can see why football games between them can now have real needle.

Take their December clash at the Etihad for example.

A game City should have won but in which Chelsea triumphed 3-1 to show they have the character as well as the class – attributes which are almost certain to result in another Premier League title – whereas City finished with nine men.

City should actually have won more Premier League titles than the two they have managed in the eight and a half years since Sheikh Mansour arrived with untold wealth to build a dynasty.

But they have certainly made their mark.

Chelsea, in contrast, have four (soon to be five) league titles in the 14 years since Roman Abramovich rode into town – a more respectable return with three of those delivered in two separate spells by Jose Mourinho.

While Chelsea can be defensively resolute in a way City have rarely shown, both clubs can be thrilling in attack.

That combination seems certain to see Chelsea crowned champions of England for the second time in three years, while City – clear favourites at the start of the campaign – are left in the consolation race for the top four.

Regardless of their positions though, this is now fast becoming a battle which can get personal.

Two sides bankrolled by generous benefactors who have been able to surpass the traditional elite with vast spending in the quest for sustained dominance.
Maybe now, after all this time, a more lasting enmity is being formed on the pitch too.

This Stamford Bridge clash will merely provide the latest chapter.
