Manchester United vs Chelsea prediction, team updates, wagering advice, odds breakdown, and Bet Builder information
The Premier League's most anticipated match of the weekend is fast approaching, as Manchester United and Chelsea prepare to face off at Old Trafford on Saturday, September 20, with a kick-off time of 5.30pm. The game will be broadcast on Sky Sports Main Event & Premier League.
Manchester United find themselves under intense pressure, with Ruben Amorim at the helm. The Red Devils have only managed to take four points from their first four Premier League games, a stark contrast to their unbeaten run at home against Chelsea in the last 12 encounters.
United's star man, Bruno Fernandes, has been creating chances aplenty this season, with 14 opportunities created—the most in the Premier League. However, his influence has been felt more deeply in a deeper role, according to recent articles.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have been impressing, maintaining an unbeaten run in the Premier League and winning two and drawing two of their four league outings. Joao Pedro, who has made a seamless transition since arriving from Brighton, has been a key player for the Blues, having been involved in the most Premier League goals this season, with two goals and three assists.
However, Chelsea have failed to win on their last five visits to Old Trafford, and United are offered at 15-2 by bet365 for Manchester United -2 cards on the handicap. Over 2.5 cards for Manchester United in the match against Chelsea is also a betting tip offered by bet365.
Injury concerns could play a significant role in the outcome of the match. Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount may not start for Manchester United due to injury, while Lisandro Martinez is a long-term absentee. On the Chelsea side, Romeo Lavia and Benoit Badiashile are back in training but may not be available for the match.
One player to watch out for is Noussair Mazraoui, who could collect another card, having recently returned from injury and committing two fouls in the derby defeat to City.
Betting odds are also available for a Chelsea draw no bet at 2pts 4-5, and for Cole Palmer to score for Chelsea against Manchester United, with odds of 5-1 with bet365.
João Pedro, who has scored the most goals against Manchester United in his Premier League career while playing for Watford, with 3 goals in 6 appearances against them, could be a potential goalscorer for Chelsea.
The venue for the match is Old Trafford, a ground where United have won only four of their last 14 league matches. United have also been knocked out of the EFL Cup by League Two side Grimsby, adding to the pressure on Amorim and the team.
Despite United's struggles, the playing style isn't getting the best out of their personnel, according to the article. The match between Manchester United and Chelsea promises to be an exciting encounter, with both teams eager to secure all three points.
