That is the end of the match. A thrilling finish where United just refused to relent and snatched a point from the Stamford Bridge. The fifth consecutive draw between the teams. Potter’s team was second for a great part of the match. But United failed to convert its chances. Jorginho got the home team ahead when McTominay fouled Broja. But the elation did not last long as Casemiro headed a goal in to restore parity.

United has a freekick on the left flank but Bruno squanders the chance to make use of it with a poorly taken free kick. Elanga gets a chance to cut back moments later but there is no one to connect to it.

Jorginho steps up to take the spot kick. He sends the ball to the right and he scores! Chelsea leads! In the 87th minute. Stamford Bridge is deafening! The deadlock took some time to be broken but at last we have a goal.

Mount’s cross is cleared and the ball lands with Bruno. He aims to play it to Rashford into the Chelsea half but puts too much power on it.

Chelsea maintains patience and keeps releting. Loftus-Cheek’s cross wins a corner for his side. Again, the delievery lacks accuracy and nothing comes off the set piece.

Change completed. Lindelof subbed in for Varane. United gifts the ball to Chelsea and it launches an attack. Sterling has the ball near the touchline and he wins a corner.

Chelsea starts the second half with the ball and the onus is on the home team to lift its game and find a winner.

The players are ready for the second half, no changes from either side at HT. Who will take control of the match?

No other fixture has produced more draws than this one, and the game is living up to its billing. Both teams have had chances and have not utilised them. Kepa has been forced into action and that will give some hope to ten Hag. Potter has some thinking to do if he wants to create chances. Will be interesting to see how the second half pans out.

Kepa at work yet again! This time he blocks a low curling effort from the left flank.

Chelsea’s custodian bails it out again. Rashford is driving in from the right side of the pitch. He moves to his right and shoots as soon as he reaches the penalty area. Kepa is forced to dive to his left and parries the ball away.

The Brazilian is trying to win the ball off Jorginho’s feet but is late to the tackle. Referee straight away shows a yellow card.

Rashford is denied by Kepa! He gets a through ball from Bruno and is past the Chelsea center-backs. Rashford takes the shot but Kepa comes off his line to make the save.

Antony recieves a pass from Bruno on the left side of the final third. He first beats Chalobah and then proceeds to do the same to Mount. Mount snaps at his shins and Antony goes down. Freekick to United.

Shaw moves forward from the left, aiming to enter the penalty area. He tries a one-two move with Eriksen but the second pass lacks direction. The ball is far away from Shaw and Kepa comes forward and collects the ball.

The England full back is spotted in the stands. He is out of action until after the World Cup due to an injury.

The visitors keep the ball for a few minutes. They try to explore options from the right flank, then the left. They end up overplaying and Sancho is caught offside and the attack ends.

Eriksen feeds Shaw on the left and the full back has acres of space to run into. No Chelsea defender closes him and he takes a shot. The ball goes just wide of the far post.

Antony and Chilwell come together again. This time Casemiro sends a ball to Antony who tries to play it past Chilwell. The English defender is alert and brushes the forward aside to win his side a throw in.

Chilwell dashes forward from the left flank. Antony fights for the ball but ends up bringing the wing back down. Free kick to Chelsea.

Both teams have been wary of- being ultra aggressive in the opening exchnages. This is in tune with how the teams have faced off in the previous matches. The last four matches have ended as draws.

The game has started as United gets the ball rolling fromt he centre circle.

The players have completed their handshakes and are setting out into formations. Stakes are high, who will emerge victorious? A cracker in store.

The biggest news from Manchester United this week has been the omission of Cristiano Ronaldo from the squad, after the 37-year-old refused to be subbed in late against Tottenham and stormed off pitch during the mid week fixture.

Manchester United has been on a recovery trail post its 6-3 drubbing at the hands of Manchester City. Since then, it has won two and drawn one.

Manchester United has been unbeaten in its last 10 meetings against Chelsea and Erik ten Hag would not want that streak to end under his watch.

In Chelsea, the Graham Potter era is well and truly under way. The Blues have been unbeaten under their new manager and have risen to 4th place in the points table.

Unbeaten in six games, including the Champions League win at San Siro over AC Milan, a win against the Red Devils will take Chelsea level on points with Spurs at 23.
