A huge Premier League clash is upon us this Thursday as Manchester United take on Chelsea at Old Trafford.
Both sides come into this game in extremely poor form. Both succumbed to defeats to Arsenal at some point last week and will be looking to bounce back to obtain every point possible during the latter stages of the season.
Chelsea did manage a win at the weekend with a last gasp Christian Pulisic goal seeing off West Ham. United on the other hand have only won one game in April - they really need to step up if they want any chance of playing in any of the European competitions next season.
Manchester United against Chelsea is always a great fixture, so let's take a look at everything you need to know regarding the game.
