There may only be one Premier League fixture tonight but it’s one of huge significance, both for our Fantasy Football fortunes and on the destination of the Premier League title. Manchester United are the visitors, and Chelsea are the hosts.

With Chelsea fifteen points adrift and having a turbulent season, it’s United who are looking to edge closer to that 19th Premier League trophy. More importantly of course, it’s United who are featuring in their second game of the gameweek, meaning most of us are loaded up with their players.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom is open for business, and the team sheets are in…

Chelsea XI: Cech, Ivanovic, David Luiz, Terry, Cole, Essien, Lampard, Ramires, Anelka, Torres, Malouda

Man United XI: Van der Sar, O’Shea, Smalling, Vidic, Evra, Fletcher, Carrick, Scholes, Nani, Hernandez, Rooney

Sir Alex has named his first unchanged team since May 2008 (thanks Shreevesy), meaning Dimitar Berbatov is once again left in favour of Mexican sensation Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez.

As for the Champions, and they also leave a big name striker on the bench in Didier Drogba, with Carlo Ancelotti clearly hoping Fernando Torres’ supposed hoodoo over Nemanja Vidic surfaces tonight.

    Proper dodgy 5 mins from the ref that... Luiz should have been off, and that was never a pen.

    At least that will hopefully stop all Chelsea fans' whining about 'disallowed goals' and Rooney and whatnot. Chelsea should be down to 10 men, and if that penalty had been awarded to Utd we would have seen 10 pages of rants about it from Chelsea fans.

      Not a disgraceful decision, I've seen them given, but the wrong one IMO.

        Ran over his standing foot which he planted right in front of his legs, causing him to trip. Don't get me wrong, it was no elbow but defo a pen.
