2. Chris Smalling vs. Loic Remy
With the absence of Diego Costa from the lineup, the onus on starting the Chelsea attack would fall on Loic Remy unless Guus Hiddink has a change of heart and plans to play with Falcao. The French striker certainly hasn’t done much to convince people of his ability to be better than Costa but under a new manager, he could flourish.
Chris Smalling on the other hand, is one of the few Manchester United players who has actually bettered himself this season and if he can keep the French striker in his pocket at Old Trafford, United could well get the victory.
