Tactical preview: What Man United must exploit of fragile Chelsea to take three points back to Manchester
Story updated
The story in brief
5-second readManchester United face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, needing tactical discipline, midfield control, and attacking efficiency to secure a win.
From the source
Manchester United take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday lunchtime. The Red Devils and Michael Carrick are desperate for three points. United will need to do these three things if they are to come away from West London with a win, as they did last season.
Carrick’s side have developed a habit of conceding goals early in big matches. This has been evident in their last two Champions League matches against Atletico Madrid and 1907 Como.
It is statistically harder to win any match when you give the opposition the lead early on, but this is especially true in big matches.
