| Given Chelsea's recent form, we should generally favors the visitors, but their impressive run under Michael Carrick also appears to be coming to an end. The Red Devils have lost two of their last four Premier League games. It's also has to mentioned that the Londoners have lost their last three Premier League matches without scoring. A goal fest is therefore unlikely, especially since even a draw would be invaluable for the Red Devils in their fight for Champions League qualification. Manchester United are also only seventh in the away table overall and have performed considerably better at home. Chelsea's recent slump in form vividly illustrates this. Since the beginning of March, no other club in Europe's top five leagues has lost more competitive matches than the Blues, six out of nine who have slipped to sixth place in the Premier League after four defeats in their last five games. They are already four points behind fifth place. If Chelsea want to qualify for the Champions League, they desperately need a turnaround, which, given their long list of absentees is not quite certain. |
