Chelsea vs Manchester United live early team news and how to watch Premier League fixture
Manchester United will be targeting a first Premier League win in two months when they face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this evening, with kick-off 8.15pm.
United suffered a 17th Premier League defeat of the season last time out, losing 2-0 to West Ham United at Old Trafford, meaning they head into tonight's game winless in their last seven league games.
Much of United's current focus is on Wednesday night's Europa League final against Tottenham Hotspur in Bilbao, but head coach Ruben Amorim has hinted that he plans to name a strong starting XI this evening.
United are without a win in their last four visits to Stamford Bridge, drawing three and losing one. Their last victory in this particular corner of west London was in February 2020.
The Reds are poised to include Ayden Heaven in their matchday squad for the first time in just over a month this evening after he was included in the travelling squad on Thursday.
