Ruud Van Nistelrooy scored lots of goals for Manchester United as a player and the former striker is now tasked with selecting the team for a tough Premier League encounter against Chelsea. Erik Ten Hag has been relieved of his duties and the Red Devils will be aiming to produce a response after a somewhat unfortunate defeat at West Ham.
However, it’s easy to see Chelsea landing a victory on the road, with Cole Palmer in sensational form and he’s worth considering when it comes to a Premier League Bet Builder in terms of finding the net. Nicolas Jackson should also cause problems for the opposition defence, with Pedro Neto breaking into the first team.
Although the Old Trafford crowd will be baying for a victory, we think Chelsea are in a much better place and this could be a notable victory for Enzo Maresca’s side. The Blues have won three of their four away clashes this season, with a 6-2 triumph at Wolves being followed by a 3-0 triumph away to West Ham.
The bookies anticipate plenty of goals being scored, with Over 2.5 trading at a short price and there’s a decent shout for Chelsea to win and both teams to find the net. It’s likely that Van Nistelrooy will be in charge for a handful of games although it might be difficult to stop the rot considering that United have scored three goals in four home games.
