Chelsea will be looking to strengthen their position at the top when they play host to Manchester United on Saturday.
The Blues are tied on points with Manchester City and Liverpool at the top end of the standings and registered an emphatic 3-0 win over Southampton before the international break.
The Blues looked set for a win against Liverpool until Daniel Sturridge’s late equalizer saw both the teams bag a point apiece.
United and Chelsea have played some thrilling encounters between them in the recent past and one can expect another intriguing battle on Saturday as the two Premier League giants lock horns at the Stamford Bridge.
United haven’t been in the best of forms this season but Chelsea should not make the mistake of underestimating their rivals.
Probable Chelsea XI
Formation: 4-3-3
KEPA Arizabalaga
Cesar Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Gary Cahil, Marcos Alonso;
N’Golo Kante, Jorginho Frello, Matteo Kovacic;
