Chelsea vs Manchester United - Preview


Chelsea welcomes high flying Manchester United in a crunch fixture at the Bridge. Louis van Gaal's men are in sublime form of late and look to extend their good run of form against the best team in the league.


Chelsea will look on to seal the title race with a win tomorrow. Chelsea are facing end season blues at the moment but to expect them surrender without a fight would be foolish.


Team News


Chelsea are without their talismanic striker Diego Costa who is out for at least a week and may only return for the Arsenal game next week. Loic Remy too is doubtful for the tie and we may well see Didier Drogba once again starting upfront.


Manchester United have suffered a late injury crisis as they will be without four players who started for them in Sunday's derby win. Louis van Gaal will be without Michael Carrick, Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo and Daley Blind. Blind and Jones will undergo a late fitness test before the game. This means that the visitors will be playing a makeshift defense and also can see Wayne Rooney once again deployed in midfield.


Chelsea's possible starting lineup:
Courtois; Ivanovic, Terry, Cahill, Azpilicueta; Matic, Fabregas; Hazard, Oscar, Willian; Drogba


Manchester United's possible starting lineup:
De Gea; Valencia, Smalling, McNair, Shaw; Blind; Herrera, Fellaini, Young, Mata; Rooney


TFM predicts a 2-2 draw.
