Chelsea
Manchester United has been competitive in all of their matches and finally looks like a side starting to click, but their performances still haven’t consistently translated into positive results.
This derby against Chelsea could be the turning point. From United’s perspective, they will look to exploit Chelsea’s occasionally fragile defense.
On the other hand, Chelsea’s recent games even in the Champions League have shown that they can go toe-to-toe offensively with top sides like Bayern. However, they continue to lack the maturity and defensive stability needed to fully capitalize on that attacking strength.
What we say
Both Teams to Score
At the moment, Chelsea looks like the more complete side, but this will still be a tricky match since Manchester United will be highly motivated to deliver another strong performance. The head-to-head record also leans in United’s favor they are unbeaten in their last five meetings at Old Trafford, with 2 wins and 2 draws, all of which saw both teams find the net.
Given the current form and circumstances, the best pick here is both teams to score. For added value, backing Garnacho to score or register a shot on target is worth considering, as former players often raise their game against their previous clubs.
