by Constance Rigot |
United at the forefront once again as they meet Chelsea in round 9 of the Premier League in the game of the week.
Premier League Recap.
Chelsea host Manchester United in round 9 of the Premier League. Once again Manchester United are in the spotlight as they feature in the game of the week in round 9 of the Premier League. Last week all eyes were on the Liverpool United game, which in the end, turned out to be very disappointing and underwhelming. Hopefully this week will be different however. Chelsea are in the same boat as United in terms of their league campaign so far. Both were expected to dominate and both find themselves not even in the top 3 8 games in. Chelsea started well with 3 wins and a draw from 4 games. They were then beaten by Liverpool and then Arsenal 2-1 and 3-0. Their last 2 games resulted in wins which has kind of gotten them back on track to an extent. United also started strong but their loss to City in the Manchester Derby set off a chain reaction of losses that they've only just recovered from, although not 100%. Of their 3 most recent league games they beat Leicester and drew with both Stoke and Liverpool.

Bottom Line Prediction
Both teams were expected to dominate this league but 8 games in and that's not the case. They both started relatively well but after a while performances began to drop off and games were lost. Neither teams finds themselves in the top 3 this far in. Chelsea are in the better position of the 2 as they are closer to the top but we reckon United a due an performance, and from this performance balance shall be restored.. in our opinion. United to win is 5/2 with Bet365.
