English Premier League leaders Chelsea are itching to maintain their lead atop the standings when they face Manchester United on Sunday.
Chelsea are top of the table with 29 points after 12 matches, three ahead of closest challengers Man City.
Meanwhile, Man United are in eighth place with 17 points after a dismal run of form that has seen them lose 4 of their last five matches.
In that run, they conceded 15 goals and the most recent 4-1 humiliation at Watford saw them terminate Ole Gunnar Solskajer’s contract at the club.
The Blues have only let in one goal in their last 5 league matches in a 1-1 draw against Burnley and look unstoppable under coach Thomas Tuchel.
