Manchester United vs Chelsea. Prediction (odds 3.90) and bets on the English Premier League match

Current form

Immediately after the defeat in the previous round of the Premier League from West Ham (1:2), the resignation of Erik ten Hag and the appointment of Ruben Amorim as head coach of Manchester United were announced. There were even expectations that the Sporting coach would already be with MU in the cup game with Leicester. However, until he takes up his duties, organizational issues are being resolved. The Red Devils are led by the former famous player of the team Ruud Van Nistelrooy. With him, Manchester United defeated the Foxes with a score of 5:2 and made it to the quarterfinals.

In the Premier League, the Mancunians are not doing well - only 11 points scored in nine rounds. Taking into account the powerful selection of names in the attack, eight goals scored look very weak - this is less than one goal on average per match. In the last rounds, under the leadership of Erik ten Hag, the "Red Devils" did not show any stable results. One could see both a good victory over Brentford (2:1), and an unconvincing draw with Crystal Palace (0:0).

It should be noted that Manchester United is not performing well in the Europa League either. In three rounds played in this tournament, they managed to score three points – all matches ended in a draw. In general, in five of the ten previous matches in all tournaments, the team ended in a draw with their opponents.

Disqualifications and injuries

Due to injuries, Yoro, Malasia, Maguire, Mainu, Anthony, Shaw and Mount will not play today.

Current form

Chelsea this season under the leadership of Enzo Maresca have immediately made their claim to the fight for a place in the top four and so far everything is going very well for the Londoners, at least in comparison with previous seasons. The "aristocrats" have 17 points, and the gap from fourth-placed Arsenal is only one point.

https://www.chelseafc.com/en target=_blank rel=noopener>Chelsea have lost points twice in the last three rounds. First, they drew with Nottingham Forest (1:1), and then lost to Liverpool (1:2). However, there is no reason to talk about a serious decline, since in the ninth round, they won 2:1 against Newcastle. Interestingly, the Magpies took revenge in the League Cup (2:0) a few days later, and Eddie Howe used almost the entire main squad in that match, while Enzo Maresca tested the reserves in action.

In addition to the Premier League, Chelsea successfully performs in the Conference League. In this tournament, the "aristocrats" in turn beat Gent (4:2) and Panathinaikos (4:1) with class and are among the leaders after two rounds.

Disqualifications and injuries

Only Kellyman and Sancho will not play today.

Interesting trends for betting

• In six of the last eight games of the "aristocrats" in the championship, both teams scored goals
• Chelsea have failed to win in the first half in four of their last five matches in all competitions
