Premier League
Although against Leicester and in the cup tournament, Manchester United showed a much better face in their first match after the departure of Erik Ten Haag. The "Red Devils" defeated the "Foxes" 5:2, and now Van Nistelrooy and company face a more serious test. Even with Ten Haag, United won their last two home games against Chelsea, and since 2013, they have not lost at home in the Premier League to this opponent.
Chelsea was eliminated from the cup tournament during the week, losing 0:2 away to Newcastle. However, they made more rotations with the squad. Since the start of the season, they have three losses in all competitions, all of which were away. They have had good away wins as well, but definitely need more consistency in their away matches, and the upcoming one is also a potential stumbling block for Maresca and company.
Prediction: 1X double chance, both teams to score: YESManchester United is time to move up and there are indications for that after the removal of Ten Haag. Chelsea is a serious opponent, but in recent years they have struggled at "Old Trafford" and it would not be surprising for them to remain winless here. However, we can again expect goals from both teams, which has happened in the last six matches between them.
