Here is how Manchester United could lineup against Chelsea today.
Manchester United will invite Chelsea to Old Trafford on Sunday. With relatively inexperienced managers on either side, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Frank Lampard will have a daunting task while taking in charge of the team.

The Red Devils had a disappointing season as they finished out of the top four and failed to lift any of the domestic competitions. On the other hand, it is the vice versa, with Frank Lampard taking charge of the Blues with no budget in the summer window.
There are slight concerns over fitness for Chelsea, but the whole side will be raring to start with their strongest lineup. United hold the edge in this tie, but the game is only played on the pitch.
We shall look at Manchester United’s team for the first game of their Premier League campaign.
