Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Manchester United vs Chelsea

Manchester United

The Red Devils suffered a crushing 3-0 defeat in the English Premier League derby against Manchester City in their last round, once again disappointing their fans around the world. Manchester United were unable to mount a worthy challenge against the favorites and now have only four points after four matches. Ruben Amorim's men face another tough home match against a serious and dedicated opponent, in which the Old Trafford hosts will need to improve significantly to claim all three points and return to winning ways. Manchester United absolutely must win, as another setback would further distance them from the top group.

Chelsea

The Londoners let a win slip away to Brentford in their last match, though that encounter was a difficult one for Chelsea, and the loss of points was well deserved. Enzo Maresca's side are yet to lose in the current English Premier League season, but have already suffered two setbacks, allowing Liverpool and other rivals to build a small lead. Like many other Premier League clubs, Chelsea is starting in the main stage of the Champions League, so the visitors may not be in the best shape for the upcoming Premier League match. However, the good news for the Blues is the return of leading striker Cole Palmer, who scored in the previous match.
