It’s a massive afternoon for Chelsea today as they take on Manchester United as the race for the Premier League top four heats up.
With three games to go, the Blues actually have Champions League qualification in their hands and a win at Old Trafford would be a huge step towards that.

However, Chelsea’s away form against the rest of the top six has been abysmal so far as they have lost every game on the road against them.
But United have also last seven matches in their last nine in all competitions and it could be a good time for the Blues to make the trip up north.
Defeat to Maurizio Sarri’s side wouldn’t mathematically end their hopes of playing in Europe’s elite club competition, but it would make it highly unlikely due to the west Londoners’ superior goal difference.
Man Utd have won their last two Premier League home games against Chelsea – they’ve not beaten the Blues in three top-flight games in a row at Old Trafford since January 1957 under manager Matt Busby.
