This fixture has traditionally been a tightly-fought affair and has seen a lot of draws. Out of 30 matches played in the Premier League between these two sides at Stamford Bridge, 12 have ended in a tie. In fact, Chelsea have not won a league match against Manchester United on this ground in nearly five years. It was back in 2017 when the Blues edged past the Red Devils 1-0 thanks to an Alvaro Morata header. Since then, they have played each other four times on this ground, with United winning one and the remaining three ending in draws.

It will not be a surprise if both sides play out another draw on Saturday, considering their recent history. Even this season, both sets of defence have taken the centre stage in recent games. Manchester United have kept a clean sheet in their last three games in all competitions, while Chelsea have not conceded in their last five. Hence, it will be highly unlikely to expect a goal rush from this eagerly-anticipated clash.
