Preview: Chelsea vs. Manchester United

Sports Mole previews the Premier League encounter between Chelsea and Manchester United.

Chelsea host Manchester United on Sunday afternoon looking to record their sixth successive victory in all competitions.

Since drawing with Arsenal just before Christmas, Jose Mourinho's side have conceded just one goal in five fixtures, including keeping three clean sheets in a row.

New signing Nemanja Matic won't start at Stamford Bridge, but Frank Lampard could return from a calf injury.

Manchester United secured their first win in four against Swansea City last weekend as they look to close the gap on the top four in the league table.

Boss David Moyes has revealed that he will be without strike duo Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie through injury, but Tom Cleverley could return in midfield.
