Manchester United arrive under pressure after a 3-0 defeat in the Manchester Derby against City last sunday (14). The loss left the Red Devils in 14th place, with just four points and a single win. Playing at home, the team seeks an immediate recovery to move up the Premier League standings.
Coach Ruben Amorim had a full week to prepare but continues without four injured players: Lisandro Martínez, Diogo Dalot, Mason Mount and Matheus Cunha. The expected XI: Bayindir; Yoro, de Ligt and Luke Shaw; Mazraoi, Bruno Fernandes, Ugarte and Dorgu; Diallo and Mbaumo; Sesko.
Chelsea, meanwhile, come from a 3-1 loss to Bayern Munich in their Champions League opener. In the league, they drew against Brentford after conceding in stoppage time. Despite the setback, the Blues are in 5th place with eight points and remain within reach of the top positions.
Coach Enzo Maresca has no fresh concerns but remains without Colwill, Badiashile, Essugo, Roméo Lavia and Liam Delap. The likely lineup: Robert Sanchez; Fofana, Chalobah, Adarabioyo and Hato; Caicedo and Enzo Fernández; Buenanotte; Pedro Neto and Gittens; João Pedro.
Referee Peter Bankes will officiate Manchester United vs Chelsea, assisted by Eddie Smart and Blake Antrobus. Tom Kirk serves as fourth official, while VAR is under Craig Pawson, with Adrian Holmes as assistant VAR.
