Chelsea vs Manchester United. Possible line-ups and latest news
Tomorrow, on April 4th, in the 31st round match of the English Premier League, Chelsea will play against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge. Dailysports has prepared the latest news for you regarding the match, as well as the probable lineups of the teams.
Arguably, in the current season, only Liverpool has suffered as many injuries in the English Premier League as Chelsea. As Mauricio Pochettino's team approaches another game of the season, they do so with an overcrowded infirmary.
In the previous match against Burnley, right-back Malo Gusto sustained a minor injury, and Ben Chilwell missed that match due to knee problems. Both full-backs are doubtful for the match against Manchester United.
Defenders Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah, and Reece James, along with Levi Colwill, midfielders Leslie Ugbohuku, Roméo Lavia, Carney Chukwuemeka, forward Christopher Nkunku, and goalkeeper Robert Sanchez, are still unable to play.
In all likelihood, in Gusto's absence, nominal center-back Axel Disasi will take his place on the right in defense, and experienced Thiago Silva will occupy his spot in the center. In comparison to the Burnley match, it is expected that Raheem Sterling will replace Mykhailo Mudryk in the starting lineup.
For Manchester United, the most problematic area remains the center of defense. It seemed that the issue was being resolved, but yesterday, the club announced that Lisandro Martínez and Victor Lindelof would miss around a month due to new injuries. Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans are not ready to play due to minor muscle injuries, so the appearance of young center-back Willy Kambwala alongside Harry Maguire is expected.
Left-backs Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are still absent, leaving Erik ten Hag with no choice but to field Aaron Wan-Bissaka in that position.
One piece of good news for Manchester United is the return of Amad Diallo after suspension.
Possible Chelsea line-up
- Petrovic – Disasi, Thiago Silva, Badiashile, Cucurella – Caicedo, Enzo Fernández – Palmer, Gallagher, Sterling – Jackson
Possible Manchester United line-up
- Onana – Dalot, Kambwala, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka – Mainoo, McTominay – Garnacho, Bruno Fernandes, Rashford – Hojlund
The match will kick off at 21:15 Central European Time.
