Manchester United vs Chelsea: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds today

Manchester United and Chelsea go head-to-head in the Premier League tonight as both look to rally much-needed momentum for a push at the top four.

It's been a tough campaign for both teams as they lurch from one below-par performance to another.

While Mauricio Pochettino continues to juggle a £1billion squad beset with injuries, Erik ten Hag's fractious tenure is in real danger of being cut short.

A win for either team would hardly provide all the solutions, but it would provide a welcome respite in a tough December schedule.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Manchester United vs Chelsea is scheduled for a 8.15pm GMT kick-off tonight, Wednesday, December 6, 2023.

The match will take place at Old Trafford in Salford.

Manchester United vs Chelsea prediction

This is the battle between two teams who have been largely dismal this season with the odd bright spark.

The only real guarantee is goals, with both defences unable to keep a clean sheet, but whatever version of either team turns up is anyone's guess.

I'm going to somewhat sit on the fence and plump for a 2-2 draw.
