How should Chelsea line up against Manchester United in penultimate game of season?

Chelsea have two games left of the season and will be facing Manchester United at Old Trafford on Thursday in the first of those.

Not sure how or why this game got squeezed into the final week as such, in these circumstances, but there’s nothing on the line for us, so hard to complain too much. United meanwhile need a point to ensure a top-four finish and a place in the Champions League next season alongside Manchester City, Arsenal, and Newcastle United.

The season will end this Sunday, when we’ll be facing Newcastle back at the Bridge.

Our injury list remains sizeable and concerning — deep breath: Reece James, N’Golo Kanté, Mason Mount, Benoît Badiashile, Ben Chilwell, Marc Cucurella, Mateo Kovačić, Marcus Bettinalli, Armando Broja — though Kalidou Koulibaly has recovered in time for this final stretch. He made a substitute appearance over the weekend.

Choose wisely.
