Manchester United Vs Chelsea fixture is a rollercoaster matchup in Premier League matchday 10 to watch out for.

In what has been termed ‘the match of the week,’ the two teams will lock horns in the six-pointer cracker on Sunday, November 3, 2024.

It will be the 53rd meeting between the two teams in all competitions. Manchester United have won 17 of those meetings. Before the narrow defeat to Liverpool, Chelsea maintained a perfect away record this season, winning all their fixtures. 

The Blues will hope to recover from the loss at Anfield and return to winning ways at Old Trafford.

Meanwhile, their last Premier League fixture against Newcastle United ended with a 2-1 win, but they lost their EFL Cup round-of-16 clash against the same opponents.

Manchester United’s last Premier League fixture against West Ham United ended in a 2-1 defeat, thanks to a controversial late spot-kick for the Hammers.

However, the Red Devils were able to roar back to victory in the midweek EFL Cup clash against Leicester City at Old Trafford.

They have secured two wins from their past five meetings with the Blues, drawing two and losing two.

Manchester United are still grappling with scores of injured players ahead of the tie. 18-year-old young defender Leny Yoro has returned to the grass but has yet to feature for the team. 

Luke Shaw is ruled out of the match with a fresh injury blow, while Mason Mount and Harry Maguire are also doubts for the game.

Chelsea will go to Old Trafford with a fully fit squad. We reported earlier that only Jadon Sancho will miss the match due to illness. Also, FA’s clause has barred the player from featuring against Manchester United since he is on loan from the parent club to the Blues.
