Chelsea face Manchester United in the Premier League and the confirmed team news is in from Stamford Bridge.

Graham Potter goes head-to-head with Erik ten Hag for the second time already this season as fourth takes on fifth in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

Chelsea are yet to lose under Potter since his was appointed - winning five, drawing two - while Man United come into the meeting off the back of a 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday night.

Should Chelsea keep another clean sheet, it will be their fifth in a row in all competitions and will help them maintain their position in the league table ahead of the Red Devils.

Potter believes Saturday's clash in the capital will be a good indicator of where Chelsea are at following six weeks in charge of the Blues.

"It's going to be a tough game.
