Manchester United vs. Chelsea: Current situation
It is a tough time to be a Manchester United fan as the “Red Devils” have another disappointing season. Being in the bottom half of the standings is something we are not used to seeing from Manchester United and not the place where a team with that legacy belongs. However, it is on the “Red Devils” to dig themselves out of the hole, and they may need a new manager to help them.
After a couple of struggling seasons, Chelsea finally looks like a legit contender in the Premier League. They have a great group of young guys who are leaving everything they have on the pitch, and that is bringing the desired results for the team from Stanford Bridge. Beating Manchester United on the road is a special feeling for the team from London, and this looks like a real opportunity to feel that again.
Manchester United Stats & Form
Manchester United has dropped to 14th place in the Premier League, which their fans find hard to believe. However, that is a reality they need to face, and things may look even worse after the “Blues” visit Old Trafford. Manchester United has lost two of the last four games in the Premier League, and maybe the 5-2 win over Leicester in the EFL Cup can give them the energy boost they need to beat Chelsea.
Chelsea Stats & Form
Chelsea has a promising season, winning 5 of their first 9 games on the Premier League schedule. The team from London has won 3 of the last 5 games in the competition and comes off a 2-1 win over Newcastle in the last Premier League round, but then lost to the same team in the EFL Cup during the week.
Manchester United – Chelsea: Head to Head
Five of the last ten games between Manchester United and Chelsea ended in a tie, with the “Red Devils” winning three of the rest and the Blues celebrating twice. Last season, both teams won at home, Chelsea by 4-3 and Manchester United by 2-1. The last time Chelsea won at Old Trafford was in the semifinal of the 2020 FA Cup. The last three games between the two went over 2.5 goals, while the previous six stayed under.
Manchester United – Chelsea Odds
According to 22bet, both teams have similar chances to win with Manchester United at 2.55 and Chelsea at 2.48, while the draw is at 3.88. The total goal line is set at 2.5 with 1.41 for over and 2.53 for under.

Betting tip and prediction: Manchester United - Chelsea (03.11.2024)
All the eyes of the football world will be on the Manchester United vs. Chelsea derby this weekend in the Premier League. Both teams have had many ups and downs in recent years and are still looking to regain the image they had in the past decade. Manchester United has been struggling this season, and it is a real miracle that Eric ten Hag has not been fired yet. The Red Devils are in the bottom half of the Premier League standings and have only won one of the last eight games in all competitions. The lack of efficiency is something we have never seen from Manchester United and the reason why the Red Devils’ fans have turned their backs on the manager. The team somehow managed to beat Brentford, which could have been ten Hag’s last game on the bench, but he still is on a hot seat like no other coach in Europe. On the other side, Chelsea has shown some signs of improvement, connecting two wins in the Premier League and the domestic competition. Being fifth in the league is not something the Blues can be happy with but is definitely a sign that the team is going in the right direction. Chelsea has no injured players going into this game, which definitely gives them a sense of security before the visit. On the other hand, Manchester United will be without striker Antony, midfielders Mason Mount, Kobbie Mainoo, and Christian Eriksen, and defenders Harry Maguire and Noussair Mazraoui. Given that, the Red Devils simply have no capacity to go for a win in this one, even though they won the last two home games against Chelsea. Both teams will be more focused on defending their own goal rather than attacking, which gives enough reasons to go with under 3.5 goals in this one.
