Fans and the media alike, will be forgiven for thinking this season will be one to forget for the Pensioners, given the numerous predicaments surrounding the club. The transfer ban slapped on the London club earlier in the year was expected to be a fly in the ointment but manager Frank Lampard has managed to get his side playing impressive football this season.

Despite marking the start of the season with a humiliating 4-0 loss against huge rivals Manchester United, they have managed to get their season right back on track. They currently sit fourth on the league standings, with just goal difference separating them from 3^rd place Leicester City.

The Blues are currently enjoying a seven-game winning streak and have maintained an unbeaten status in 38 of their previous 44 matches. The players have got Stamford Bridge buzzing in recent weeks, scoring ten goals while allowing just a single goal at the other end in their last three fixtures on home turf.

Manchester United, on the other hand, have been in dismal form so far this season, struggling to take control of games and most importantly, rack up maximum points in these games. The Stretford End have kept their voices low this season, as they ponder on the numerous problems at the club.

Watching this United side play has been a pain in the arse for the Old Trafford faithful and a joy to behold for rival fans.

To quote their form, Solskjaer’s charges were winless in six of their last eight fixtures across all competitions. Their form on the road is nothing to write home about, emerging victorious in just four from as many as fifteen games on their road trips.

However, there seem to have been some improvements from Solskjaer’s men in recent weeks, ending Liverpool’s 100%-win record two weeks ago. They remain the only team to have managed to steal points from Jurgen Klopp’s men so far in the Premier League this season.

Following the one-all draw against Liverpool, they made light work of newly-promoted Norwich City last time out, defeating them in a thrilling 3-1 encounter. It is worth noting that Rashford and Martial missed penalties in the same game, both players miscuing their efforts.

The wounds of the 4-0 loss that Solskjaer’s men inflicted on Chelsea earlier in the season are still very fresh, and the hosts need to tread carefully to avoid another embarrassment, this time in front of the home crowd.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Chelsea: Ruben Loftus-Cheek, N'Golo Kanté, Antonio Rüdiger.

Man United: Paul Pogba, Eric Bailly, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Axel Tuanzebe, Luke Shaw, Diogo Dalot, Nemanja Matic.

Chelsea vs Man United Predictions

In big games of this stature, the winner often boils down to who wants it more, who’s got that passion and drive. With the kind of pressure these kind of games bring along, manager’s game-plan often fly out the window and nobody knows what to expect.

However, with this being a contest for pride, and the visitors desperate to make something out of their colourless campaign so far, count on the Red Devils to give the home side a run for their money. They should come out on top with a narrow win margin.
