Tactical analysis of Chelsea vs. Manchester United in the Premier League.

Jose Mourinho's men face Antonio Conte’s Chelsea on Saturday at 17:15pm in the Premier League. The Portuguese tactician needs to keep building momentum for next season’s title race. Manchester United have won five out of their last six games against the top 6 in 2018. The Reds finished 2nd in the Premier League, but Mourinho can win his third trophy in just two seasons with victory against Chelsea. The big worry for Mourinho is whether Romelu Lukaku will be fit for FA Cup final, the Belgian striker injured his ankle against Arsenal in the recent Premier League game.

Mourinho should set up Man Utd dependent on which system Conte goes with. If Conte goes for his favoured 3-4-3, Mourinho should use the 4-2-2-2 that he used in the recent Premier League game with Chelsea. If Conte goes for the 3-5-2, United should play a 4-3-3. Pogba, Lingard and Sanchez will all be very important game for United in supporting Lukaku up front. Conte is likely to go with Giroud over Morata as his number nine with Hazard providing the creativity from midfield.
