Match facts

Manchester United

Manchester United have won just one of their last 14 matches in all competitions against Chelsea (D5 L8) – winning this exact fixture last season in the Premier League (2-0).
Manchester United have lost more Premier League games (18) and conceded more Premier League goals (67) against Chelsea than they have against any other side in the competition.
Jose Mourinho has seen his Man Utd side score more than once in just one of their seven home Premier League games against fellow ‘big six’ teams, although it came last season versus Chelsea (W3 D2 L2).
Mourinho has lost only two of his 32 Premier League matches at Old Trafford as Manchester United manager (W18 D12), with both defeats coming at the hands of rivals Man City. Indeed, Mourinho’s (2.06) points per game ratio at Old Trafford for Man Utd is worse than both Louis van Gaal (2.24) and Alex Ferguson (2.42).
Romelu Lukaku has failed to score in any of his six Premier League matches against the ‘big six’ this season, attempting just four shots on target in those games.

Chelsea

Chelsea will be looking to do the league double over Man Utd for the fourth time in the Premier League and first time since 2009-10 under Carlo Ancelotti (also 2004-05 under Jose Mourinho and 1993-94 under Glenn Hoddle).
Only Liverpool (4) have done the league double over Man Utd more times in Premier League history than Chelsea (3 – level with Man City and Arsenal).
Against West Brom, Chelsea named their ninth Premier League starting XI this season without a British player – they are the only side to have done so in the top-flight this season. The Blues had only named a non-British starting XI three times in 962 Premier League games before this season (twice in December 1999, once in April 2016).
Antonio Conte has won three of his four meetings in all competitions as Chelsea manager against Jose Mourinho (W3 L1) - twice in the Premier League and once in the FA Cup.
Eden Hazard has found the net with each of his last three shots from open play – he had scored with three of his previous 31 open play efforts.

Predictions

Manchester United were far from convincing during their Champions League match against Sevilla, as they were saved by their number one, David De Gea.

Chelsea, however, were impressive against Barcelona and they should be more confident going into this match.

United's poor record against Chelsea is likely to continue with a home loss on Sunday.

Final Score – 1 : 2
