Overview

• Kickoff is scheduled for Saturday at 12:30 p.m. ET / 5:30 p.m. BST / 10:00 p.m. IST at Old Trafford.
• Viewers in the U.S. can watch on USA Network and stream on Fubo, Sky Sports carries the match in the U.K., and Star Sports and JioHotstar show it in India.
• The game is widely framed as make-or-break for Ruben Amorim, whose Premier League win rate sits a little over 25%, the lowest for a United manager since Sir Alex Ferguson retired.
• United enter after a 3-0 derby defeat to Manchester City and an earlier EFL Cup exit to Grimsby Town, with scrutiny on an unorganized defense, new goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, and the manager’s insistence on a back-three system.
• Chelsea arrive following a 3-1 Champions League loss to Bayern Munich, are priced as slight betting favorites, and face a United side expected to have Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount available.
