Chelsea vs Manchester United: how they shape up

Chelsea have enjoyed an impressive upturn in fortunes since replacing Thomas Tuchel with Graham Potter in the middle of September. The former Brighton boss has taken charge of seven matches in all competitions, winning five and drawing two. After conceding a goal in each of Potter’s first two games against Salzburg and Crystal Palace, the Blues haven’t let any in in their last five. Their recent revival has allowed them to move up to fourth place in the table, seven points behind leaders Arsenal and three off Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur, who are joint-second.

Manchester United sit a point behind Saturday’s opponents and also head into the clash in fine fettle, despite the recent drama surrounding Cristiano Ronaldo (more on him later) and the derby thrashing by City at the start of the month. Since that game, Erik Ten Hag’s men have won four and drawn one of their last five matches, and have emerged victorious in nine of their last 12 fixtures in all competitions. They’ve posted some big wins at Old Trafford against direct rivals (Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs) but can they repeat the trick on the road?

Chelsea vs Manchester United: team news

Despite their excellent recent defensive record, Chelsea have been without three regular starters in defensive areas in the shape of Wesley Fofana, Reece James and N’Golo Kanté; none of the trio will be available to face United. Midfielder Conor Gallagher was forced off in the midweek draw at Brentford because of illness but trained normally on Friday and should be available.

The big news coming out of the Red Devils’ camp centres, of course, around Ronaldo. Ten Hag revealed that the Portuguese refused to come on as a late substitute in Wednesday’s victory over Spurs, going up the tunnel before the full-time whistle. As a result, he has been fined, told to train alone and won’t feature in the squad at Stamford Bridge. Fellow attacker Anthony Martial has been ruled out due to injury. Harry Maguire returned to training this week but isn’t likely to be involved, although Raphaël Varane and Lisandro Martínez are very much the first-choice central defensive pairing at the moment in any case. Christian Eriksen is back in contention for a starting jersey after a recent illness.
