Chelsea travel to Manchester United this afternoon with Jose Mourinho’s side looking to continue their fine start to the season, which leaves them as the only unbeaten team left in the Premier League.
Manchester City’s loss on Saturday at West Ham means that the Blues can extend their lead with a victory – and this is the team that Mourinho is likely to task with bringing home the three points:
GK) Thibaut Courtois
The Belgian has more than justified the hype since returning to the club from Atletico Madrid and dislodging Petr Cech.
RB) Branislav Ivanovic
Serbian right back Ivanovic is having arguably his finest season in a Chelsea shirt.
CB) John Terry
The Chelsea captain is showing few signs of age with some fine performances so far this season.
CB) Gary Cahill
An excellent foil for Chelsea and yet to come under much pressure from Kurt Zouma for his place.
LB) Filipe Luis
Cesar Azpilicueta is suspended after a red card at Crystal Palace last weekend, giving Luis a chance to impress.
CM) Nemanja Matic
The tough tackling Serbian has become possibly the Blues’ most important player since his January move from Benfica.
CM) Cesc Fabregas
Spanish international Fabregas is an assist machine for the Gunners and has been one of the signings of the season.
ARM) Andre Schurrle
Schurrle could be preferred to the less attacking Willian to give Chelsea’s struggling centre forward a little bit of extra support.
ACM) Oscar
Oscar has been excellent in the number ten role for the Blues so far this season.
ALM) Eden Hazard
Chelsea’s second Belgian continues to improve and is rightly considered in the very top bracket of world footballers.
SC) Diego Costa
Somehow, despite his hamstrings not appearing to be working properly and him having been to hospital with a virus this week, Jose Mourinho is set to risk starting top scorer Diego Costa.
