Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Man Utd, Palmer returns

Chelsea will be aiming to return to winning ways when they face Manchester United in the Premier League on the road.

The Blues are on 17 points after nine games into the season and have the chance to jump to third in the table with a victory at Old Trafford.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted Line-up:

Robert Sanchez has been the regular shot-stopper in the Premier League and he is expected to return between the sticks.

Enzo Maresca should revert to his preferred four-man backline. Malo Gusto and Reece James are set to feature at right and left-back respectively.

Wesley Fofana will partner Levi Colwill in the heart of the defence.

Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia have been the preferred pairing in midfield. They are expected to keep their places ahead of Enzo Fernandez.

Further forward, Cole Palmer should be raring to go after being an unused substitute in midweek. He is expected to start from the number 10 role.

Noni Madueke and Pedro Neto are likely to feature on the right and left wing respectively with Nicolas Jackson leading the attack for the Blues.

Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Man Utd: Sanchez; Gusto, Fofana, Colwill, James; Caicedo, Lavia; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson.
