Manchester United are targeting a second successive Premier League home win when Chelsea visit Old Trafford in one of four top-flight fixtures scheduled this Wednesday

Erik ten Hag's side lost at Newcastle on Saturday but could climb back into the top six with victory against the Blues. Chelsea beat Brighton & Hove Albion 3-2 at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, Enzo Fernandez scoring in either half to help his team end a two-match winless run.

Matches between these teams have produced the most draws in Premier League history, but a point may not suit either side as they seek to improve on inconsistent starts to the campaign.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including kickoff time, broadcast details and team news.
