Chelsea vs Manchester United Preview and Team News
Chelsea Team News
Chelsea sits fifth in the league. A victory could lift it into the top four and strengthen its bid for a UCL berth next season. The Blues arrive after a heartbreaking loss to Liverpool on penalties in the EFL Cup. That makes three losses in five matches across all competitions, including the shootout.
Before that clash, they lost 0-2 at home to London rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. While Cole Palmer’s sending-off attracted most of the headlines, attacking midfielder Geovany Quenda had the most disappointing performance against Spurs. Despite playing 72 minutes, the Portuguese failed to complete a single cross, dribble, or long ball. Midfielder Jordan Henderson also had an underwhelming outing, completing just 17 of 27 passes and failing to complete any of his four attempted long balls.
Manager Xabi Alonso has several injury concerns to manage. Joao Pedro, Emiliano Martinez, and Reece James are ruled out, while Pep Chavarria and Jamie Gittens are doubts.
Chelsea predicted lineup vs Manchester United (3-4-2-1): Penders; Colwill, Lacroix, Acheampong; Hato, Henderson, Caicedo, Neto; Quenda, Palmer; Rogers.
Manchester United Team News
Nothing seems to be going right for Manchester United. The club appointed Michael Carrick as its full-time manager following a decent run of results last season, but the former midfielder has struggled to deliver so far this campaign. United sits 16th in the standings, just two spots above the relegation zone. A win would ease the pressure, but another loss could cost Carrick his job.
Man United’s form has been poor, with no wins in its last eight matches across all competitions. The last time the Red Devils tasted victory was in September against UCL debutants Sabah FK. The team hit a new low with a 0-3 home defeat to Bournemouth on Sunday. It recorded 29 touches in the opposition box but failed to create a single big chance. This lack of creativity has been a major problem for the Red Devils.
Injuries have not helped Carrick, either. Marcus Rashford, Kobbie Mainoo, and Luke Shaw are doubtful, while Manuel Ugarte, Benjamin Sesko, and Patrick Dorgu are all sidelined.
Manchester United predicted lineup vs Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Lammens; Dalot, Heaven, Maguire, Yoro; Baleba, Santos; Fernandes, Tielemans, Mbeumo; Cunha.
Chelsea vs Manchester United Prediction
- Pick: Chelsea to win or draw
- Odds: -385 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Chelsea 2-1 Manchester United
We expect Chelsea to avoid defeat because Manchester United has gone eight matches without a win in all competitions. Carrick benched captain Bruno Fernandes against Bournemouth after Fernandes publicly criticized his tactics, and the 3-0 defeat that followed has left the manager under heavy pressure.
Overall, United appears to be in a difficult position and could struggle to compete with the Blues. Chelsea has avoided defeat in 17 of its last 24 home meetings with the Red Devils in the Premier League. The visitors have yet to win an away match this season.
Chelsea vs Manchester United Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Chelsea over 1.5 team goals
- Odds: -152 (20Bet)
We expect Chelsea to score at least two goals. Morgan Rogers, who has recorded five goal contributions, will be the one to watch in the final third. Cole Palmer, with three goals and two assists, is another dangerous attacking option for the Blues.
Chelsea has scored at least twice in three of its last five Premier League matches. The team has netted 11 goals in four home games this season, averaging nearly three per outing.
