Team News:

• Lisandro Martinez and Diogo Dalot will not be in action for Man United as they are injured. Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount are back training with the first team and but are most likely not to start in the upcoming fixture.
• Chelsea will be without the services of Liam Delap, Levi Colwill, Dario Essugo, Benoit Badiashile and Romeo Lavia as they are injured.

Player(s) to watch:

• Bryan Mbeumo is going to play an important role in the attacking front for Manchester United. Even though he has only scored a single goal in their four Premier League appearances, his presence in the attacking front has always been an issue for the opponent’s defence.
• Joao Pedro has been one of the most consistent players for Chelsea. Joao Pedro is yet again ready to help his side on the attacking front. In four league games, he has scored two goals and has three assists to his name. Pedro is going to be a constant threat to Man United.
