CHELSEA v MANCHESTER UTD BETTING PREVIEW
Chelsea failed to finish in the Premier League's top four, just 12 months after winning the title. Their haul of 70 points was 23 fewer than the season before. In recent weeks, after beating a tired Liverpool, the Blues recorded a frustrating 1-1 draw against Huddersfield and abject 3-0 defeat at Newcastle in the final day. Furthermore, they have lost four of their last five games against the rest of the Premier League's Top 6. In the last direct encounter against United, Chelsea were beaten Chelsea 2-1 in the Premier League back in February.
David Luiz and Ethan Ampadu aside, Antonio Conte has a fully fit squad to choose from, so deciding who to play up front - Olivier Giroud and/or Alvaro Morata - is his main decision. The Frenchman should get the nod, while Willian and Hazard are expected to play behind him. Victor Moses and Marcos Alonso should retain their starting berth as wing backs in a 3-5-1-1 system, with Tiemouè Bakayoko and Cesc Fabregas in contention to partner N'Golo Kantè in the middle of the park. The back trio should be formed by Antonio Rudiger, Gary Cahill and Cesar Azpilicueta. Willy Caballero has featured in goal for Chelsea during their FA Cup run to the final but Antonio Conte may turn to Thibaut Courtois
Man UTD finished the 2017/18 Premier League season in second place, and a trophyless season would be disappointing for Jose Mourinho's men. The Red Devils experienced a big improvement in direct games against the Top 6. Starting with the 2-1 victory over Chelsea at Old Trafford in late February, United won five out of five in games against the Big Six. The Red Devils have allowed the second fewest goals in the EPL with 28. They also own the most clean sheets in their domestic league with 19 in 38 games.
Romelu Lukaku faces a late fitness test after missing the last three league matches with an ankle injury. Should the Belgian miss out, Marcus Rashford will lead the line, with Alexis Sanchez and one between Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard on his flanks. Eric Bailly should start alongside either Chris Smalling or Phil Jones as centre backs, with Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young as full back. In midfield, the preferred trio should be formed by Nemanja Matic, Ander Herrera and Paul Pogba. The likes of Marouane Fellaini and Anthony Martial are also injury doubts.
