From the source
Chelsea are looking to bounce back from their defeats to Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur when they take on Manchester United this Saturday. On Wednesday night, Xabi Alonso’s side were eliminated from the Carabao Cup after losing to Liverpool on penalties.
Last weekend, they also lost 2-0 to their fierce rivals Tottenham in the Premier League. Ultimately, they are not in good form right now, but neither are Michael Carrick’s side.
United have won just one league game all season and were beaten 3-0 by Bournemouth last time out. It is no surprise, then, that Opta analyst’s supercomputer has made Chelsea the clear favourites for this contest.
