Premier League football tips – Chelsea vs Man Utd prediction.

Chelsea fought fantastically to grind out an important 1-0 victory last weekend away at West London rivals QPR, with Cesc Fabregas getting a late goal. Mourinho’s side look sure to win the league and will take some stopping for anything else to possibly happen.

Manchester United are playing some fantastic football at the moment and after a sloppy first 10-15 minutes against Manchester City absolutely dominated the game at Old Trafford and went on to win 4-2.

Probable line-ups

Chelsea (4-2-3-1)– Courtois; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Ramires, Matic; Willian, Fabregas, Hazard; Drogba

Manchester United (4-1-4-1)– De Gea; Valencia, McNair, Smalling, Shaw; Herrera; Mata, Fellaini, Di Maria, Young; Rooney

  • Chelsea have won six, drawn four and lost none of their last 10 matches
  • Manchester United have won eight, drawn none and lost two of their last 10 matches
  • Over the course of their previous 10 matches, Chelsea have scored an average of 1.4 goals and conceded an average of 0.7 goals per game
  • Over the course of their previous 10 matches, Manchester United have scored an average of 2.3 goals and conceded an average of 1 goal per game
  • There have been over 2.5 goals scored in two of Chelsea’s previous 10 matches
  • There have been over 2.5 goals scored in eight of Manchester United’s previous 10 matches
  • The last time these teams met, it ended in a 1-1 draw with Robin Van Persie scoring a very late goal to cancel out Didier Drogba’s headed opener

United are defending well recently and Louis Van Gaal looks as though he is beginning to get his ideas across, so with a couple of signings in the summer his side could once again force a title challenge.

This is going to be an extremely hotly contested game and both sides will likely approach it conservatively.

We say: Draw and under 2.5 goals at 3/1 with Bet365
