Man United vs Chelsea: Official lineups as Ronaldo starts for Red Devils

The two Premier League giants have released their official lineups for the upcoming game.

Manchester United will host Chelsea in a Premier League match at Old Trafford. The Red Devils are hoping to bounce back from their back-to-back defeats against Arsenal and Liverpool.

Ralf Rangnick has made only one change to the starting XI that lost 3-1 against Arsenal last week. Marcos Rashford starts ahead of Jadon Sancho, playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes, and Anthony Elanga in United’s attacking line.
