Chelsea vs Manchester United has fascinating clashes all over the pitch, including the dugout, as both teams look to win on the Premier League return after the second international break of the season.

Alexis Sanchez's added time header to completed United's comeback against Newcastle in their last match could be a turning point for United's season, and it may well have saved Jose Mourinho's job. On his return to Stamford Bridge, where he had two spells in charge of Chelsea, Mourinho is desperate to begin closing the seven point gap between his side and Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City at the tip of the table.

Maurizio Sarri has one of the inform players on the planet right now in Eden Hazard and will be keen to see him add to his seven league goals this season.
