The Premier League season has ripped up the script so far: Everton are one point clear of Aston Villa at the top of the table, Manchester City are level on point with Leeds, and Manchester United have slumped to a sorry 15th place.<\/p>\n
Week 6 of the season should continue to throw up surprises as Chelsea travel away to United, and Arsenal must keep out Leicester City’s Jamie Vardy.<\/p>\n

– Premier League exec urges government to consider fans return to stadiums<\/strong><\/a> <\/p>\n Let’s look ahead to an exciting London football weekend:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n The lowdown: <\/b>All eyes will be on Old Trafford for what is undoubtedly the biggest game of the weekend, with Chelsea looking to kick their season into high-gear after a slow start following a flurry of summer arrivals.<\/span><\/p>\n United bounced back from their 6-1 demolition at the hands of Tottenham last time out with an impressive 2-1 Champions League win over PSG on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Chelsea struggled in attack against Sevilla on Wednesday, although United\u2019s leaky defence should rectify that.<\/span><\/p>\n Last summer was a tale of two cities for these two clubs: Chelsea splashed over \u00a3220 million on stars —\u00a0 including Germany\u2019s Timo Werner and Kai Havertz\u00a0 — while United spent months tracking Dortmnd\u2019s Jadon Sancho before settling on former Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani on deadline day, among other signings.<\/span><\/p>\n Expect to see plenty of new talent on show this weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n When they last met…\u00a0<\/b>Chelsea failed to score against United in the league last season, including Ole Gunnar Solskjaer\u2019s side running out 4-0 winners at Old Trafford, followed by a 2-0 victory at Stamford Bridge in February.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Team news: <\/b>Chelsea star Hakim Ziyech could be in line to make his first start for the club since arriving this summer, while fellow new-arrival Edouard Mendy will replace Kepa Arrizabalaga in goal after returning from a thigh injury.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n United defender Harry Maguire is in contention to return after he picked up a knock on international duty, while Solskjaer is faced with a selection dilemma after Axel Tuanzabe put in a commanding performance in midweek.<\/span><\/p>\n Cavani will be available for the first time since his arrival earlier this month. Forward Mason Greenwood could also return, while striker Anthony Martial remains suspended and defender Eric Bailly will remain out of contention.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Player to watch: <\/b>Werner will be the key for Chelsea. The striker will be hoping to pick up where he left off after opening his Premier League account with two goals against Southampton last weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Prediction: <\/b>Chelsea edge United in a 3-2 win.<\/span><\/p>\n Manchester, we're on our way! \ud83d\udccd\ud83d\uddfa#MUNCHE<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/rwmRgSWl2P<\/a><\/p>\n — Chelsea FC (@ChelseaFC) October 23, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
