The big clash of the weekend is upon us. Jose Mourinho returns to Stamford Bridge, this time as Manchester United’s manager.
The Portuguese manager has made just one change from the Manchester United team that drew against Liverpool on Monday. Jesse Lingard scored in mid-week for the Red Devils and replaces Ashley Young in the starting XI.

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has fielded his favoured three man defensive system which has been working well of late. Cesar Azpilicueta, David Luiz and Gary Cahill play as the back three, with Marcos Alonso and Victor Moses playing as wing-backs.
Brazilian midfielder Willian has been named on the bench, while Fabregas is out with an injury.
Chelsea team today: Courtois; Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill (c); Moses, Kante, Matic, Alonso; Pedro, Diego Costa, Hazard. #CFC
