Manchester United receives Chelsea at Old Trafford on matchday 15 of the Premier League in a duel between two teams that expected to be higher in the table and need to combine wins to not lose hope and at least get into the Champions League positions.
The Red Devils have 24 points after winning eight games and losing six, and have just lost to Newcastle in another direct duel of those who are in the second lot of the standings. After that match, some internal problems came to light between coach Erik Ten Hag and two references such as Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford.
The Blues also set themselves up to compete among the top places, but although they won last weekend, they have an irregular streak of five wins, four draws and five losses, placing them 19 points out of international cup positions.
There will be no shortage of emotions in Manchester
In the last six games the Red Devils won three of them with a clean sheet, and in the remaining three they conceded eight goals in total. While the Londoners scored twelve goals in the last four games and conceded eleven, showing that they are a team with a lot of offensive power, but with serious flaws deep down.
In the Red Devils’ seven Premier League games played at Old Trafford, the home team won four and lost three, scoring goals in five of them and at the same time conceding on five occasions. Regarding Chelsea’s production outside its stadium, it played six games per league, of which it won three, drew one and lost two, scoring in all but one and conceding goals in four games.
In the last four meetings between the two teams, both teams scored goals, and the last duel played in May of this year on matchday 32 of the last Premier League was beaten by United 4 to 1.
Chelsea barely won one of the last fifteen visits to Old Trafford in all competitions, but in nine of them both scored and in seven they scored at least three goals per game.
Strong leg and a game with friction in a key duel
In a match with so much at stake where the loser will be relegated from the top lot, it is possible that we will see a close match with a lot of friction in the midfield and maximum concentration on the defenses.
Manchester United has accumulated 28 yellow cards in 14 games with an average of two per game and has not received any red cards so far. Chelsea, on the other hand, is a very physical team that has received 47 warnings and three expulsions with an average of more than 3.5 per game.
