Manchester United Hosts Chelsea, Arsenal Visits Hostile Newcastle

Premier League big boys, Manchester United and Chelsea will continue their rivalry at Old Trafford on Sunday, with bragging rights of their boisterous fans at stake. Both teams are separated by six points in the table, with Chelsea in 5th position and United 14th.

 Following their 2-1 defeat at West Ham last weekend, Manchester United parted ways with their Dutch manager, Erik Ten Hag on Monday, with another Dutchman, Rud Van Nistelrooy installed as caretaker coach.
