Manchester United take on Chelsea this evening in a bid to close the gap on the top four. A win this evening would put us within three points of fourth.
We’ve played Chelsea twice already this season, beating them 4-0 at Old Trafford in the league on the opening day of the season, before beating them 2-1 at Stamford Bridge in the League Cup. The difference this evening though is that Marcus Rashford scored two goals in both of those games. However, this evening, new signing Odion Ighalo could make his debut, with him starting the game on the bench.
De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Maguire, Shaw, Williams, Fred, Matic, Fernandes, James, Martial.
Subs: Romero, Jones, Dalot, Pereira, Mata, Greenwood.
Chelsea: Caballero, James, Christensen, Rudiger, Azpilicueta, Kante, Jorginho, Kovacic, Willian, Pedro, Batshuayi.
Chelsea subs: Kepa, Tomori, Zouma, Alonso, Barkley, Mount, Giroud.
