No, it doesn't.
It's all about opinions really. No one knows if the outcome tonight will have any bearing on the game at the weekend.
Personally, I'm in the camp of wanting City to lose in the hope it mentally affects them. If they win, they're a step further to doing what no English club in history has ever done. Yes they have cheated to do it, but the media won't ever mention that. They'll go down in history as the first club ever to win every competition in the same season. Immortality for this squad.
Lose tonight, and it's just another ordinary season.
