Manchester United will be bidding to make it back-to-back wins under interim head coach Ruud van Nistelrooy when they take on Chelsea in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
The Red Devils recorded a 5-2 victory over Leicester City on Wednesday night in the last-16 stage of the EFL Cup, with Van Nistelrooy making a winning start to his tenure after replacing Erik ten Hag at the helm.
