The return of Carlos Tevez

Carlos Tevez is expected to return for Manchester City against Chelsea on Wednesday night after the striker apologised to the club for his behaviour this season.

 

Castrol EDGE Performance data shows that Tevez was extremely important for City before he left the club without leave.  Since the start of last season, he has scored 20 goals in 34 appearances at a chance conversion rate of 21.98%.  With this in mind, Mancini will be hoping that he can breathe new life into City’s title campaign, and it is interesting that the Argentine has a particularly impressive record against Chelsea – scoring six league goals in six appearances against the Blues.
