Chelsea’s penultimate match of the 2022-23 Premier League campaign has them make the trip to Old Trafford on Thursday night to lock horns with Manchester United.
The Blues were handed a 1-0 defeat by a second string Manchester City side last time out and Frank Lampard’s men will be hoping to avoid a repeat of that against the other Manchester-based outfit.
Let us now take a look at how the Chelsea side will line up for the upcoming game –
CHELSEA’S PREDICTED LINE UP (FORMATION)

Edouard Mendy is expected to man the goalposts for the visitors with Kepa set to give way after starting the game against City last weekend.
In the backline, Kalidou Koulibaly could stage a return to the first XI at the expense of Trevoh Chalobah with Lampard likely to field a five man backline.
Chelsea’s midfield department on the team sheet is expected to have Enzo Fernandez and Ruben Loftus-Cheek as the two names.
Kai Havertz is tipped to operate as the focal point of attack for Chelsea with Raheem Sterling and Mykhailo Mudryk providing company in the front line.
