Ouch! That was absolutely not the way that Chelsea FC wanted to start their UEFA Champions League campaign. Bayern beat them 3-1 as Harry Kane bagged a brace, one goal from the spot, the other from open play. Enzo Maresca has work to do, as Chelsea may be a very strong squad (they did win the FIFA Club World Cup after all, but they are not quite among the world's elitist of the … [Read more...] about Chelsea Starting XI Prediction at Manchester United

Manchester United Starting XI Prediction vs Chelsea FC
Wednesday brought news that Manchester United reported record revenue, of £666.5 million ($909m), for the past year.

Manchester City lost two of their first three matches this season, and at The Etihad that is simply not acceptable. This is Man City, where the standards are always up in the stratosphere.

Manchester United Starting Lineup Prediction at Manchester City
