If Manchester United manager David Moyes wants to make a statement of intent that the club is still in the race for the title, today would be it. Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has never lost a Premier League match at home. A win for the Red Devils today would change the conversation regarding United. At the same time, a win for Chelsea today would arguably end Manchester United’s title hopes, if they’re not over already.
Now that I’ve said all that, it’ll probably end up a draw.
Starting line-ups:
Chelsea: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry (c), Azpilicueta; Ramires, David Luiz; Willian, Oscar, Hazard; Eto’o
Subs: Schwarzer, Cole, Mikel, Matic, Lampard, Mata, Torres
Manchester United: De Gea; Rafael, Evans, Vidic, Evra; Valencia, Carrick, Jones, Young; Januzaj, Welbeck
Subs: Lindegaard, Giggs, Smalling, Hernandez, Cleverley, Fletcher, Kagawa.
