Indeed, Chelsea’s win rate of 18% at Old Trafford in the Premier League (6/33) is their lowest away to any side they have visited 10+ times in the competition. After their 1-0 win in May, Chelsea are looking for successive league victories over Manchester United for the first time since winning three in a row from November 2009 to March 2011 under Carlo Ancelotti. The Blues’ two wins in their last three league games versus the Red Devils (D1) are as many as their previous 17 beforehand (W2 D9 L6). Chelsea vs Manchester United is the most drawn fixture in Premier League history, finishing level 27 times. 14 of those draws have come at Old Trafford, with Everton against Spurs at Goodison Park the only fixture at a specific venue to be drawn more often in the competition (17). Manchester United have won two of their last three home Premier League matches (L1), as many as in their previous 11 at Old Trafford combined (W2 D2 L7). They are looking for consecutive home league victories within the same season and under the same manager for the first time since December 2023 under Erik ten Hag. Only Manchester City (8. 5) have a higher expected goals total than Manchester United (8. 3) so far in the Premier League this season. However, only Burnley (9. 4), Aston Villa (7. 4) and Wolves (7. 2) have a higher x G against than the Red Devils (6. 9). Despite scoring only five times, Manchester United have had 94 shots in their last four home Premier League games, attempting at least 20 in every game. They last had 20+ shots in more consecutive league games at Old Trafford between March and September 2012 under Sir Alex Ferguson (8 in a row). Bryan Mbeumo has been involved in six goals in seven Premier League appearances against Chelsea (3 goals, 3 assists) – all while playing for Brentford – but all of these goal involvements came at Stamford Bridge. It is the joint-most goals and assists against a single opponent with none coming on home soil by any player in Premier League history. No player has been involved in more Premier League goals this season than Chelsea’s João Pedro (5 – 2 goals, 3 assists). The Brazilian has also scored three goals in his five games against Man Utd in the competition – against no side has he scored more. Bruno Fernandes could make his 200th Premier League appearance in this match, the 28th player to reach that milestone for Manchester United. He has 51 assists for the Red Devils, with only David Beckham making more in his first 200 for the club (62). Man Utd’s Bruno Fernandes has created the most chances both overall (14) and from open play (10) in the Premier League this season but is yet to provide an assist.
