LIVE🛑Watch Chelsea vs Man Utd Live stream Here, perfect goal from C.Gallagher

Chelsea versus Manchester United is one of the great heavyweight bouts of the Premier League era. Ahead of the latest meeting between the two teams, club historian Rick Glanvill and club statistician Paul Dutton detail all you need to know.

Neither side is currently where they would like to be. The unusual 8.15pm Thursday kick-off at Stamford Bridge will bring to a close matchweek 31 – the penultimate full set of midweek fixtures this season – and neither is in the top four.

However, unbeaten in nine games over 90 minutes in all competitions, the Blues are poised five points behind seventh-placed West Ham United with up to three games in hand over the Hammers and all clubs in between.

There was no disguising the lost opportunity against 10-man Burnley for Mauricio Pochettino’s side, who slipped to 12th after recent results. Football offers quick routes to redemption, though, and the prospect of exorcising our longest-ever winless league run against the Red Devils is just that.

The results of Erik ten Hag’s sixth-placed side have often eclipsed their performances – across west London at Brentford on Saturday they were denied what would’ve been a fourth stoppage-time winner by an even later equaliser.

To banish those demons, Chelsea must end our worst current track record against any league opponent. We have not taken all three points from United in a dozen meetings home or away, losing five.

However, only one of United’s previous nine league outings in the capital has ended in victory (including that draw at Brentford), and they’ve lost four of the last six.

Chelsea team news
Chelsea will be aiming to claim a first home league win against Manchester United for seven years tonight.

Taking on board the message from leading light Cole Palmer about the need to sharpen up in both boxes would help. Pochettino has also demanded more hunger, energy and individual responsibility out of possession.

While netting 14 times in the past five matches across all competitions the Blues, often through defensive lapses, have conceded two goals on each occasion and drawn twice.

Becoming a unit that is harder to play against would go a long way to solving the Londoners’ issues – no side has handed more shooting opportunities to opponents through defensive actions (22 shots).

The Blues have broken the deadlock in nine of our 14 league games at the Bridge, eight of those openers coming in the first half, and have so far outscored United in the top-flight by 49 goals to 40.

In selection news, Ben Chilwell misses out again through illness, but it is hoped Carney Chukwuemeka, Trevoh Chalobah, Malo Gusto and Robert Sanchez will all be fit to feature. Chukwuemeka’s line-breaking qualities could be crucial against a United side that leaves gaps between midfield and defence.

Meanwhile, Palmer netted in our 2-1 loss at Old Trafford and has the chance to become the first Blues player to score against the Mancunians home and away in a league campaign since Juan Mata in 2012/13.

Catch all the Unseen angles from Chelsea’s 2-2 Premier League draw with Burnley at Stamford Bridge.

Opposition scout – Man United
Goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, left-backs Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia, centre-backs Victor Lindelof and Lisandro Martinez, and forward Anthony Martial will not be in Ten Hag’s plans tonight, while winger Amad Diallo is available after suspension.

Jonny Evans, Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire, who saw out the disappointing conclusion at Brentford, have returned to training but Diogo Dalot is likely to remain at right-back, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka staying on the left.

Cobham graduate Mason Mount has returned from injury and opened his goals account for the Red Devils against the Bees, but seems unlikely to start. Mount used to initiate pressing at Chelsea and critics have noted United’s struggles when not in possession, moving to recover the ball as individuals rather than in concert.

Only Sheffield United, Luton Town and West Ham have allowed more shots on goal in the league than Ten Hag’s team (495). Yet a number of their players have had successful seasons, not least dynamic teenager Kobbie Mainoo and fellow central midfielder Scott McTominay, who has contributed key goals throughout the campaign.

That has been vital for Ten Hag, as Casemiro has not been the influence he was last season and the team has still depended much on Bruno Fernandes’ playmaking. Chelsea will be wary of livewire Alejandro Garnacho’s mischief on the flank and Rasmus Hojlund’s old school physical presence in the box – they thrive when given space.

Yet few United forwards offer the complete support service to their defensive colleagues and full-backs can be left stranded upfield. The Blues will hope to hurt the visitors with rapid breakaways to exploit the gaps.

The history
From a record crowd of 67,000 for a 1-1 promotion clash on Good Friday 1906, through Matt Busby imitating the ‘guard of honour’ for champions Chelsea in 1955, or those Sixties images of George Best evading Ron Harris’ sideswipes, to the nip-and-tuck title chases of 2004-2013, Chelsea versus Manchester United has been one of football’s biggest draws.

In recent years the Mancunians have had the better of those meetings and are unbeaten in seven visits to the Bridge across all competitions.

Last season a cagey affair exploded into life in the dying moments. In the 87 minute, McTominay grappled Armando Broja at a corner and Jorginho sent David De Gea the wrong way from the spot. Graham Potter’s team could not hold out though, and when Casemiro latched onto a speculative Luke Shaw cross, Kepa Arrizabalaga could only palm onto a post, the ball then crossing the line.

HIGHLIGHTS: CHELSEA 1-1 MAN UNITED
Highlights from Chelsea’s 1-1 draw against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League.

The Blues’ most recent Premier League win over Man Utd at Stamford Bridge was back in November 2017, Alvaro Morata scoring the only goal under Antonio Conte.

Chelsea have lost only two of the 31 Premier League games against United when we’ve opened the scoring (16 wins, 13 draws).

Shooting boots
Against Burnley, Palmer became the first Chelsea player to score in a fifth successive league match at the Bridge since the one and only Eden Hazard in December 2014. He is now also the youngest-ever Blue to contribute towards 20-plus Premier League goals in a debut season.

At the weekend, both tonight’s teams were involved in matches with an unusually high number of attempts on goal.

However, while Chelsea recorded 33 efforts against the Clarets (12 on target, two goals) – our highest tally for 10 years – across west London, United were on the receiving end of 31 attempts by Brentford.

Mad match memories
Erik ten Hag’s third experience of the touchline at Stamford Bridge is unlikely to be as eye-popping as his first. A little over four years ago, the current Man United boss was involved in one of the most bizarre, thrilling games ever staged on the Fulham Road.

Two of the Netherlanders’ tally had been own goals, but Frank Lampard’s youngsters responded in scintillating fashion and might even have won 5-4. As it turned out, Cesar Azpilicueta’s arrowed finish was ruled out by VAR for a handball earlier in the move – something that would not apply now.

We’re bringing you our Premier League predictions for Thursday night’s clash at Anfield between Liverpool and Sheffield United. The Blades have put in a couple of spirited performances of late which have seen them earn draws with Bournemouth and Fulham but the prospect of a trip to Anfield will surely frighten the life out of a defence that has a goal difference of -50.

Liverpool vs Sheffield Utd predictions: Easy three points for the hosts
🔥 Hot Tip

Liverpool Win-to-Nil

⚽ Correct Score prediction

Liverpool 5-0 Sheff Utd

⬆️ Total Goals prediction
Over 4.5 Goals

Key Stats
Liverpool have won each of their last six meetings with Sheff Utd, keeping clean sheets in five of those matches. The Reds don’t tend to keep a lot of clean sheets but we expect Liverpool to have the majority of the ball in this game, limiting the Blades’ goalscoring opportunities.
Liverpool have scored five or more goals in two of their last five outings in all competitions, while Sheff Utd have conceded five or more goals in two of their last five league games and have failed to score in three of their last five fixtures.
Over 4.5 goals have been scored in three of Liverpool’s last five matches, while three of Sheff Utd’s last five outings have also witnessed five or more goals scored.
Pre-game odds and win probability: Odds on home win
HOME: 1/10 (1.10) – 90.9%
DRAW: 13/1 (14.00) – 7.1%
AWAY: 29/1 (30.00) – 3.3%
*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Liverpool are the expected winners of this game with a probability of 90.9%, and we agree with the bookmakers on this one.

Liverpool ran out 2-1 winners at home to Brighton at the weekend and have now won four of their last six outings in league and cup, while Sheff Utd drew 3-3 at home to Fulham, masking it one win, two draws and three defeats from their last six.

For more football betting tips on the game, check out the Anytime Goalscorer market. Mohamed Salah is the obvious choice to score in this game at 8/15 (1.53) which has a probability of 65.2%, but you could back his teammate Darwin Nunez to score at 4/6 (1.67) with a probability of 60%.

Player to watch – Mohamed Salah
Mo Salah is so often the choice for the ‘player to watch’ whenever Liverpool are in action but that is due to how consistent he has been for the Reds this season.

Mo Salah player to watch

The Egyptian forward not only top scores for Liverpool in the league with 16 goals, he also has nine assists, two more than his nearest teammate Darwin Nunez.

Salah will enjoy going up against the Blades’ leaky defence
With Liverpool having the home advantage against a dodgy Sheff Utd defence on Thursday night, we’re backing Salah to shine once again and wouldn;t be surprised if he added multiple goals/assists to his tally for the season.

Man City could beat Real Madrid to Kylian Mbappe signing after ‘meeting’ in Manchester
They could make an audacious swoop.

Alex Brotherton

Manchester City could be about to make a sensational swoop for Kylian Mbappe after a meeting took place in Manchester.

This week Mbappe told Paris Saint-Germain of his intention to leave the club at the end of the current season when his contract expires.

The 24-year-old came close to leaving PSG in 2022 before he signed a new deal, and the French club had hoped to convince his to renew terms this summer.

ADVERT

The World Cup winning attacker has long been linked with Real Madrid, and the Spanish giants are heavy favourites to sign him when he becomes a free agent.

However, it now appears that Man City are making an attempt to snatch Mbappe from underneath Madrid’s noses.

According to Cadena Ser, a representative of Mabppe met with senior figures at City last week.

ADVERT

Mbappe’s main representative is his mother, Fayza Lamari, but he is also said to have three other ‘unofficial’ but trusted representatives.

The report from Cadena Ser claims that one of those other representatives travelled to Manchester and met club figures on Monday.

City trained at the City Football Academy on Monday morning before flying to Copenhagen ahead of their Champions League win on Tuesday.

It is claimed that several members of Pep Guardiola’s squad saw Mbappe’s representative at the training facility.

On Tuesday, the day after the Manchester meeting, Mbappe informed PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi of his intention to leave the club.

ADVERT

However, Real Madrid will fight tooth-and-nail to ensure that Mbappe is playing in white next season, rather than sky blue.

Another of Mbappe’s representatives reportedly travelled to Germany and watched Real Madrid’s Champions League win against RB Leipzig from a VIP area.

The representative is said to be a childhood friends of Mbappe, and is known by Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni, a close friend of the striker.

With Erling Haaland said to harbour ambitions of playing for Real Madrid one day, it could be that City want to hit Los Blancos right where it hurts.

Pep Guardiola saw his Manchester City team take a huge step towards his first priority of the season on Wednesday, but still wasn’t happy.

Victory over fourth-placed Aston Villa kept City firmly in the title hunt, beating a top five rival for the first time this season at the seventh attempt. It also kept City ten points ahead of fifth-place as they look to lock in another year of Champions League football – the first thing Guardiola looks for every season.

City could still qualify for Europe with an unlikely fifth-placed finish depending on the Premier League’s co-efficient ranking at the end of the season, or also by winning the Champions League again. It would be a huge surprise to see them collapse from here, but despite that Guardiola was taking aim at the authorities before and after the win over Villa.

“In two days at 12.30pm we have another game,” said Guardiola pre-match, explaining his eye-catching decision to rest Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne. “I think all the teams are top and have big squads and a good squad, and of course we have it. That is the position we decide today for this line-up, for this tough opening and go for it.”

At full time, Guardiola again pointed to the schedule and hinted at changes on Saturday lunchtime at Crystal Palace. “We have an incredible schedule, every three days,” he bemoaned.

“The schedule is terrible. Three days, three days, three days. We have to bring new energy for each game and everybody has to be involved. All the guys were good and in the next game we’re going to play different players.”

That suggests the plan is to recall De Bruyne and Haaland at Selhurst Park, and why wouldn’t you if you had your two best players well-rested. They had both struggled against Arsenal on Sunday, but are players who have that knack of putting frustrating games behind them quickly. Don’t bet against them starting on Saturday – not that those odds would be at all generous.

However, in their place, Guardiola discovered an exciting new front four who put together one of City’s best attacking performances of the season. Phil Foden got a hat-trick from his favourite number ten role, Julian Alvarez was unlucky not to follow him with at least two goals in his preferred main striker position.

Jack Grealish is improving after struggles with form and injury and looked dangerous again on the left, with Jeremy Doku building on impressive recent displays with a first assist since November when he notched four against Bournemouth – 21 games previously.

Guardiola did cite Foden’s dip against Arsenal because of his recent workload, but the pair are 23 and 24, they should be able to handle three games in a week. The manager also rarely persists with a single attacker in every single game, and it’s impossible to leave Haaland and De Bruyne on the bench for any extended run

However, they say don’t change a winning formula, so that would mean sticking with the Foden and Alvarez partnership as a nine and ten if Guardiola subscribed to such basic cliches. Foden has 21 goals and ten assists, and Alvarez has 16 goals with 13 assists. Only Haaland (29 goals, five assists) has more goal involvements than the duo this term).

The obvious selection is to recall Haaland and De Bruyne, but the thought must be in Guaridola’s head after the Villa win that Foden and Alvarez are simply producing more in attack in recent weeks.
