We've gathered here bright and early to witness two teams desperately in need of a win, try to get a win.
Chelsea's struggles are nothing compared to United's crisis, but we need the win just the same.
Xabi Alonso has picked a starting XI that could be either a back-four or a back-three (depending on Pedro Neto's role), but does include Estêvão at long last. Marco Palestra also starts.
Here we go!
