English Premier League, Season 2017/18
Date: Sunday, 5th November 2017
Kick-off at 16:30 UK/ 17:30 CET
Venue: Stamford Bridge (London).
Manchester Joined go to Chelsea on Sunday evening, planning to limit the hole to their nearby adversaries Manchester City at the highest point of the Head Group table.
At present second in the alliance, yet five focuses behind the Natives, this end of the week could constitute a perfect open door for the Red Fallen angels to apply some genuine weight to City.
On the off chance that they could leave West London having gained a win - and in-frame Arms stockpile can abstain from being beaten when they visit the Etihad on Sunday - Joined would move inside touching separation of Kick Guardiola's high-flying group.
Chelsea versus Joined together, Conte versus Mourinho and opportunity to have the last say
Supervisor Jose Mourinho will have motivations to be certain about securing a positive outcome at his old club. Joined come into the installation certain after a strong keep running of winning structure. And in addition two proficient, if not fabulous, away triumphs in the Carabao Container and Champions Association rivalries, a weekend ago's 1-0 win at home to Goads will have imparted conviction this Assembled group can secure outcomes against the most noteworthy quality resistance in the division.
The Manchester club will likewise take heart from the current aftereffects of their hosts in London. Specifically, Tuesday night's 3-0 misfortune away to Roma featured exactly how fragile the authoritative alliance champions have been on occasion this season.
The Blues looked totally incoherent as they were pounded in the Italian capital, a long ways from the smooth, composed group unit that lifted the Chief Association trophy in May. Administrator Antonio Conte would beyond all doubt love an enhanced appearing against Joined together, not exclusively to defeat his adversary Mourinho for a moment time in this apparatus – after Chelsea won 4-0 last term – yet to reenergise his collaboration's to hold their title.
The arrival of the magic N'Golo Kante following four week damage cutback would unquestionably do a considerable measure to resuscitate Chelsea spirits, however the Frenchman is as yet an uncertainty and Victor Moses remains sidelined. For the guests, albeit both Marouane Fellaini and Marcos Rojo are moving toward coordinate wellness once more, they stay probably not going to be gambled.
Chelsea vs Manchester United: Head-to-head
Manchester United won 2-0 at Old Trafford in their last meeting, which is their first win against Chelsea in 5 years in all competitions. The Blues won 7 and drew 5 from the 12 games during that period.
Chelsea are unbeaten in their last 7 home games against United, 6 wins and 1 draw.
The Red Devils do want to forget their last Premier League match at the Stamford Bridge, which was a humiliating 4-0 defeat.
Chelsea vs Manchester United: Predictions
There is little doubt that this will be a close game. But will it be exciting as it look on paper with two managers who like to set out their team in a defensive mould.
The sides managed by Mourinho often come to away grounds of the strong sides with a heavily packed defense. They did the same at Anfield and even at Old Trafford against Spurs.
Chelsea do look brittle at the back and conceded in each of their last six matches in all competitions. This is one main reason for Conte to adopt a safety first approach.
Under the current situation, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the game ending in a boring goal-less draw.
