The Devils dare Chelsea on the bridge

This is a battle between teams on the first and second positions on the league table but it means much more. Chelsea players, especially captain John Terry, still have a bitter taste in their mouths when they remember Moscow 2008.

On this occasion, it seems that the trend where Chelsea are missing important players when they clash with the Red Devils has been reversed.

Manchester United will be without Rio Ferdinand but the Chelsea squad is fully fit and having scored 19 goals in their last 5 matches, they will have a go at United’s make-shift defence of Johnny Evans and Wes Brown.

United are also without their former x-factor, Cristiano Ronaldo, and it could be hard going at Stamford Bridge. Darren Fletcher is back for the Red Devils for a match that promises to be a classic. However, Arsenal might just be the winners in the Premiership at the end of this weekend with a draw likely to be the result at Stamford Bridge.
