Chelsea travel to Old Trafford for today’s Premier League clash against Manchester United.

The Blues have picked up eight points from their opening four games and will be eyeing a victory against the Red Devils.

Chelsea have not won a league game at Old Trafford since 2012 and have the opportunity to end the dreadful run today.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted Line-up:

Robert Sanchez is guaranteed to continue in goal for the west London giants and will be eyeing a clean sheet on the road.

Reece James has been regularly rotated from the XI. Hence, we anticipate Malo Gusto to start from the right-back position.

Trevoh Chalobah and Tosin Adarabioyo are expected to start in the heart of the defence with Marc Cucurella at left-back as usual.

Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez are assured to start in the centre of the park. They are generally ever-present in their roles.

The same can be said for Cole Palmer in the number 10 position.

Alejandro Garnacho could be rewarded with his maiden Chelsea start on the left wing. He has a point to prove against his former side.

Pedro Neto should slot on the opposite flank while Joao Pedro looks set to lead the line with Liam Delap out injured for another month.

Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Man Utd: Sanchez; Gusto, Chalobah, Tosin, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Neto, Palmer, Garnacho; Joao Pedro.
