**Manchester, UK – September 20, 2025** – Chelsea face a daunting task this evening as they travel to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United in a Premier League clash. Just days after a disappointing defeat in Munich, the Blues will need to dig deep to secure their first league win at United’s home ground since 2013.
Manager Enzo Maresca has opted for some rotation in his squad, but perhaps not as extensive as anticipated. A notable inclusion is young Estêvão, who earns a start in the attack, while Wesley Fofana is preferred over Tosin Adarabioyo in defense. Alejandro Garnacho will begin the game on the bench.
**Starting Lineups:**
**Manchester United:** Bayindir | Mazraoui, De Ligt, Maguire, B.Fernandes, Dorgu, Amad, Casemiro, Mbeumo, Shaw, Sesko
**Chelsea (4-2-3-1):** Sánchez | Cucurella, Fofana, Chalobah, James (c) | Enzo, Caicedo | Neto, Palmer, Estêvão | João Pedro
The match kicks off at 17:30 BST. Coverage will be available on Sky Sports Main Event in the UK, USA and Telemundo in the USA, and Star Sports Select HD1 in India.
Chelsea fans will be hoping their team can overcome fatigue and secure a vital three points, ending their long wait for a league victory at Old Trafford.
