The Citizens have taken 22 of a possible 24 points in their last eight matches, including four straight wins, and now find themselves just one point behind Arsenal on the Premier League table. In Manuel Pellegrini's first year at the helm, City put themselves in an excellent position through the first half of the season to make a title push.
On the other hand, Swansea City have been a bit disappointing.
The club has taken less points this season (21) than City have in their past eight games, and while they are in 11th place, they are just five points clear of the relegation zone. The underachieving has been headlined by Michu, who has just two Premier League goals in 14 appearances after scoring 18 a season ago.
Let's break down this New Year's Day clash.
When: Wednesday, January 1, at 7:45 a.m. ET (12:45 p.m. GMT)
Where: Liberty Stadium, Swansea, Wales
Watch: NBC Sports Network; NBC Sports Live Extra; Sky Sports 1 (U.K.); Sky Go (U.K.)
