These two teams are getting to know each other’s tactics really well – this is the third time in less than a month they’ve played each other! United just came out on top in their FA Cup replay at Old Trafford, but that was the first time in six head-to-heads that they’ve managed to beat Wolves since the Midlands club got promoted two years ago!
When these sides met earlier in the season, it was Frank Lampard’s first-ever game in charge of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge – but he’s well and truly settled in now! He’ll be thinking that a win against The Foxes could turn the tide in the top-four race, and that his team could actually end up overtaking Brendan Rodgers’ side in the Prem table!
Rodgers has faced Chelsea 13 times as manager, but never beaten The Blues! Over the last few seasons, there have been two very different outcomes when these teams meet – a tactical 1-0 win for either side, or a high-scoring thriller with tons of drama! We’ve got our fingers tightly crossed for the latter, and we’d be happy if it was anywhere near as exciting as their Champo League cracker at the Etihad last season!
