Chelsea wants to extend a winning strip to 11 games when they welcome Manchester United to Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Blues are now on top of the Premier League table, just three points above Manchester City. The Blues have lost just one of their opening 12 matches.

Manchester United lies in position 8, 12 points behind Chelsea.  The red devils find themselves in that position after losing four of their previous five league outings.

Thomas Tuchel’s welcomes the red devils back of a hugely impressive 4-0 victory over Juventus in the UEFA Champions League.

Reece James scored again on Tuesday, taking his score for the season to five goals and five assists across all competitions.

In the Premier League, the Blues beat Leicester 3-0 last weekend. They have five wins in six matches, picking up a single draw along the way.

The Red Devils come into their first league game after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sacking on the back of a 2-0 win over Villarreal in the Champions League.

Cristiano Ronaldo began the scoring, netting his tenth goal of the season before Jadon Sancho started his Man Utd account to end the victory.

Solskjaer’s sacking came after an embarrassing 4-1 loss to Watford last weekend. That loss means United have won only one of their past seven league games.

Although interim boss Michael Carrick began with a decent win in midweek, Man Utd will almost grapple to cope with in-form Chelsea at the Bridge. 

The match will be live on Dstv Supersport Premier League.
