Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel and Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola spoke to the press before their Champions League final showdown in Porto.
Guardiola said his team will 'suffer' for their cause and predicted that neither side will dominate the game. Tuchel said that City are probably the best team in Europe right now, but pointed to his side's two recent wins over Guardiola's side as evidence of how they can 'close the gap'.
City come to Portugal with positive momentum, having finished 20 points clear of Chelsea as they ran away with the Premier League title race, but Chelsea have beaten City in the last two games they have played against them – a 2-1 win in the league earlier this month and a 1-0 victory in the FA Cup semi-final in April.
This all-English Champions League final is actually an all-Pep affair
