Manchester United’s upcoming opponents Chelsea have suffered a major injury concern ahead of this weekend’s match. Michael Carrick is desperate for a win when Manchester United head to Stamford Bridge.

His job is under severe threat, after heavy speculation he would be fired after the defeat to Bournemouth. Manchester United have not won a Premier League game since August, and enter the weekend situated in 16th place in the Premier League table.

Opponents Chelsea have suffered an injury blow ahead of the encounter, with £52 million centre-back Maxence Lacroix sustaining a muscle problem during their Carabao Cup defeat to Liverpool.
