Antonio Conte is a "master" tactician and the Chelsea manager has already changed the way clubs play in the Premier League, according to the Italian's Manchester City counterpart Pep Guardiola.
Conte won the Premier League title in his debut season in England last year, but the London club are currently struggling down in fifth place, 22 points behind runaway leaders City.
Chelsea are also two points behind Tottenham Hotspur in the race for a top-four finish that will ensure qualification for next season's Uefa Champions League.
"I think Conte is going to leave something to English football. I am sure of that," Guardiola told reporters as his side aim to heap more misery on the champions in Sunday's clash at the Etihad Stadium.

Guardiola's side will go into the match on the back of a 3-0 league victory over Arsenal on Thursday, while Chelsea lost their last league fixture 2-1 to Manchester United at Old Trafford last Sunday.
Conte, who led Italy to the Euro 2016 quarter-finals before joining Chelsea later that year, has been the subject of persistent media reports suggesting he will leave the club after criticising their transfer policy this season.
Guardiola, however, feels the former Juventus manager has already left his mark on English football.
"What Antonio has done here in the Premier League, maybe the people don't realise," the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich manager said.
"He introduced another way to attack with five at the back, another system. A lot of teams, even Arsenal, had to do a lot of imitating to do that.
"Tactically, he is a master. He did it amazingly with the national team with Italy and when he went to Turin."

Other ways to buy used products in the UAE
UAE insurance firm Al Wathba National Insurance Company (AWNIC) last year launched an e-commerce website with a facility enabling users to buy car wrecks.
Bidders and potential buyers register on the online salvage car auction portal to view vehicles, review condition reports, or arrange physical surveys, and then start bidding for motors they plan to restore or harvest for parts.
Physical salvage car auctions are a common method for insurers around the world to move on heavily damaged vehicles, but AWNIC is one of the few UAE insurers to offer such services online.
For cars and less sizeable items such as bicycles and furniture, Dubizzle is arguably the best-known marketplace for pre-loved.
Founded in 2005, in recent years it has been joined by a plethora of Facebook community pages for shifting used goods, including Abu Dhabi Marketplace, Flea Market UAE and Arabian Ranches Souq Market while sites such as The Luxury Closet and Riot deal largely in second-hand fashion.
At the high-end of the pre-used spectrum, resellers such as Timepiece360.ae, WatchBox Middle East and Watches Market Dubai deal in authenticated second-hand luxury timepieces from brands such as Rolex, Hublot and Tag Heuer, with a warranty.
