Manchester United travel to the daunting Stamford Bridge to face a Chelsea side who will be playing their first game at home in 2014, fully knowing that yet another defeat is sure to cast gloomy faces at Old Trafford and signal an end to retain their Premier League crown. United have failed to score in their last three games against Chelsea in all competitions and will be yet again missing both Robin Van Persie and Wayne Rooney through injuries.
David Moyes doesn’t possess a mentionable record against the big boys in his CV to speak for and I am sure he will be looking to get a draw from the game, rather than going over the line to seek a win and then get beaten badly.

Can De Gea help the Scot and his team?
