£37m star dropped, 3 big changes | Expected line-up of Man Utd (4-2-3-1) against Chelsea, with decisions made by Ugarte and Hojlund

Manchester United entertain Chelsea today in the highly anticipated Premier League match at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils returned to winning ways in midweek with a 5-2 victory over Leicester City in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.

Interim boss Ruud van Nistelrooy got off to a perfect start, but was able to make at least three substitutions before the late kick-off against Chelsea.

United have the opportunity to close the seven-point gap to the top four with a positive result.

The Red Devils have a brilliant record against Chelsea at Old Trafford. They haven’t lost a home game against them since 2013.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted lineup:

Andre Onana was given a break in midweek when Altay Bayindir started in goal. The Cameroon international is expected to return between the sticks against the Blues.

There could be a lone change in the back line if Noussair Mazraoui is included in the starting line-up again.

Victor Lindelof has to make way for the Moroccan, who could start from the left back position.

Diogo Dalot will likely remain at right-back, with Matthijs de Ligt partnering Lisandro Martinez at the heart of the defense.

Manuel Ugarte had a good performance alongside Casemiro, who was the match of the match in midweek with two goals to his name.

Ugarte had a passing accuracy of 90 percent and won 100 percent of his aerial duels.

The duo is expected to retain their place in the heart of midfield.

Bruno Fernandes had his best performance of the season against the Foxes with two goals. He is ready to start in the number 10 role.

Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho should be confident of being in the starting lineup, but Joshua Zirkzee is expected to drop.

The £37 million signing was extremely disappointing midweek and has to be replaced by Rasmus Hojlund.

Hojlund has scored two goals from his previous four starts for the Red Devils in all competitions.
