Team News

Man Utd
Chelsea
  • Manchester United interim boss Rudd van Nistelrooy is without no fewer than seven players for Sunday's welcome of Chelsea.
  • Andre Onana and Noussair Mazraoui may start in what could be the only changes Van Nistelrooy makes to his XI.
  • Jadon Sancho is ineligible to face his parent club, though was unlikely to have started anyway.
  • Omari Kellyman is also missing for the visitors.

Prediction

  • Manchester United got off to a winning start in the post-Erik ten Hag era, smashing Leicester 5-2 on Wednesday night. They'll face a much sterner test when they welcome Chelsea to Old Trafford on Sunday.
  • The Blues lost in midweek, albeit with a much changed XI, but Enzo Maresca should revert to his strongest team here. Chelsea have lost two of their last three away games.
  • In his first league game in charge, Manchester United will feel confident of securing a result against the Blues, though the spoils may be shared.

  • two teams in transition. Garnacho should pass more in the final 3rd not trying to finish whenever he gets a ball

  • I don't know what these two teams are playing, but it's definitely not football.

  • Palmer TSA +150 / Bruno F. To Score/Assist Anytime +125

  • MU Onana, Mazraoui, Dalot, De Ligt, Martinez, Casemiro, Ugarte, Rashford, Fernandes, Garnacho, Hojlund.

  • CHELSEA Sanchez, James, Fofana, Colwill, Gusto, Caicedo, Lavia, Palmer, Neto, Madueke, Jackson.

  • Ruben Amorim will bring 3 assistant coaches with him then in Jan some Sporting players including Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko.

  • @Marbella maybe summer but not January hes already said he wont be going for any sporting players this jan

  • @Marbella The guy himself said that he won't bring any players from Sporting in January due to his respect to the club, he won't ruin them mid-season.

  • @Marbella very good, finally some target men. Central midfielder and defender welcome as well.

  • @Marbella Why would he need both Sesko and Gyokeres?

  • @Marbella Sorry Sesko from RB Leipzig. :)

  • Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca says he has a fully fit squad.

  • Over 2.5 goals

  • i can guarantee the match will end over 2.5

  • What if United win today with a big margin score, like 4:0 or 5:0 , will Ruud stay and the contract with Amurin will be terminated ?!

  • @Ortega_10 Please tell me that's not a serious question. Do you actually think a club would pay an 8-figure release clause, make an announcement, then turn around and ask for their money back?

  • @Ortega_10 no, but if Ruud win all his matches in charge, hope the board levels him as one of the assistants

  • @koziol.mutant its not the boards decision its Amorim, hes bringing in 5/6 of his own staff thats been with him since Braga 2 are coaches and 1 assistant the rest are technical members

  • X2 guaranteed

  • Away win

  • It's a strange decision to fire Ruud regardless of the results in his few games. So he will win them all ;) 3-2

  • Ruben Amorim will move to Old Trafford on 11 November and has signed a contract with MU until June 2027.Ruud van Nistelrooy, who took charge on an interim basis after Erik ten Hag was sacked on Monday, will stay on for the club's next 3 fixtures.

  • @Marbella Initially, he was supposed to be in charge for this game. But United refused to pay for that and accepted for international break, which is better for either sides already. United kinda rushed the announcement, it will be interesting to see how things will shape up in the next games. If RvN wins every game and decides to stay as an assistant, there will be chaos because there's clearly no place for him in Amorim's plans.

  • Interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy will conduct Manchester United's pre-match media before Sunday's Premier League game against Chelsea, the clearest sign yet Ruben Amorim will not be in charge this weekend.

  • If Ruben is in charge by then , double chance united

  • Ruben Amorim is expected to take charge of this game at Old Trafford.

  • Chelsea have failed to score in just 1 of their last 15 EPL away games.

  • Palmer and Chelsea to win, light work!
