Mark Lawrenson states his prediction for Chelsea vs Manchester United

BBC Football expert Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction for Sunday’s much-awaited Premier League clash between Chelsea and Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues have revived their campaign since Thomas Tuchel replaced Frank Lampard as the manager last month and they are unbeaten in six league games where they have picked up four wins.

They are currently sixth in the league standings with 40 points, five adrift of West Ham United, who are occupying the final Champions League spot.

Up next, the capital outfit are scheduled to host Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, who are second in the table with a nine-point advantage over them

Stamford Bridge has not been a happy hunting ground for United over the years but the trend has recently reversed with three wins in as many competitions at the stadium.
