Tuchel claims Man Utd will ‘always recover’ and rates Chelsea’s chances of beating them

Thomas Tuchel has tipped Man Utd to “recover” from their terrible season and knows it is still a “big match” when Chelsea come to town.

Man Utd have lost four of their last seven Premier League matches and find themselves sixth and facing next season without Champions League football.

“With all the respect that we have for the history and the occasion and the quality in general of Man Utd, we will prepare to win this match and then we will see what questions are asked.

“It is not so much now or never because they are struggling with results recently. We try to prepare in the best way possible and to win the match tomorrow. For me as football fan and fan of the Premier League, it is a big match.”
