Bridge battle: Chelsea vs Manchester Utd
Chelsea will battle out Manchester United in a match that was postponed in mid-December because of the weather.
The champions are struggling at the moment and are currently in fifth place and 15 points behind the visitors.
On the other hand Manchester United are in top and have so far lost just one match.
Instead of fighting to defend the title, Chelsea's immediate battle looks like its the right to play Champions League football next season.
