Manchester United vs. Chelsea is always one of the most anticipated heavyweight clashes between two of the household names in Premier League history.
There is a breath of fresh air at Old Trafford following the termination of Erik Ten Hag’s contract who was terminated after the defeat against West Ham United at the London Stadium on Sunday, October 27, 2024. However, interim manager Ruud Van Nistelrooy brought back a bit of hope among the supporters after he led the Red Devils to a 5-2 victory over Leicester City in the second round Carabao Cup. However, Chelsea are coming off a defeat against Newcastle United at Saint James’ Park, but the Blues have been impressive in the league.
The last time both teams met, it was a show of class from Cole Palmer as his hat-trick ensured that Chelsea won the game 4-3 in what has been regarded as one of the most interesting games in Premier League history. They will lock horns this weekend at Old Trafford as their supporters will be hoping that their sides get maximum points by the time the referee sounds the final whistle.
