The Blues will return from the winter break with a home game against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge on Monday night.
At this stage of the season, the Blues must begin to pick up wins, and with rivals close to the Blues, our position in fourth isn’t as safe as it used to be.
The Blues must target the three points at Stamford Bridge on Monday night, but Chelsea have struggled to beat Manchester United in recent times. In fact, the Blues haven’t gotten a win against United in the last five games.
Both teams played out a 2-2 draw in the Premier League in October 2018.
Back in February 2019, United defeated Chelsea 2-0 in an FA Cup meeting.
In April 2019, Manchester United played a 1-1 draw with Chelsea in a Premier League fixture. Chelsea’s first game this season was an embarrassing 4-0 defeat at Old Trafford.
The Blues were again beaten by United for the second time this season, when both sides met in the Carabao Cup, as two Marcus Rashford goals gave United a 2-1 victory in October. However, Chelsea can take solace from the fact that United have been in very poor form and have recorded just a win in their last five league matches – losing three and drawing one.
