Chelsea host Manchester United in the Premier League on Friday May 16, live on Sky Sports' Friday Night Football, as the race for Champions League qualification continues.
Chelsea are fifth in the Premier League table, the final qualifying spot for Champions League football next season, but level on points with sixth-placed Aston Villa, who are playing Tottenham also on Friday night.
Chelsea lost 2-0 to fellow top-five rivals Newcastle last Sunday. But victory over Man Utd by a big enough margin could lift Chelsea above Newcastle into third place ahead of the rest of the weekend's fixtures.
Man Utd are 16th in the Premier League table on 39 points and have not won in the league since a 3-0 win over Leicester on March 16. They lost 2-0 to West Ham last Sunday.
This is Man Utd's last match before the Europa League final against Tottenham on Wednesday May 21 - victory in which would secure Champions League football for next season.
The previous league meeting this season between Chelsea and Man Utd ended in a 1-1 draw on November 3.
When is Chelsea vs Man Utd
Chelsea vs Manchester United in the Premier League takes place on Friday May 16 at Stamford Bridge. Kick-off is 8.15pm UK time.

Chelsea vs Man Utd team news
Chelsea will be without the suspended Nicolas Jackson against Man Utd after his red card against Newcastle.
Jadon Sancho is also ineligible to face his parent club.
Chelsea could be without a recognised striker if Christopher Nkunku and Marc Guiu do not return from injury.
Wesley Fofana, Omari Kellyman and Mykhailo Mudryk remain out.
Man Utd are expected to be without defensive quartet Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt, Ayden Heaven and Diogo Dalot.
They are all pushing to be fit for next Wednesday's Europa League final against Tottenham and unlikely to be involved at Stamford Bridge.
Ruben Amorim says any potential injury risks will be rested for Friday's game, but otherwise he will go with a strong team.
Toby Collyer and Jonny Evans are back in training and could be involved.
Chelsea vs Man Utd odds and score prediction
Sky Sports' Lewis Jones...
Nicolas Jackson's suspension makes this fixture trickier for Chelsea than the 1/3 odds with Sky Bet imply. Jackson has played his last game of this season following that red card at Newcastle and it leaves Enzo Maresca with a huge issue at centre-forward.
Jackson has missed seven Premier League matches for Chelsea this season, they have lost four of those matches against Arsenal, Brighton, Aston Villa and Ipswich, scoring just one goal along the way. A criticism of Maresca this season has been the predictability of Chelsea's play and that is more apparent when you remove Jackson from the equation as he does bring a bit of surprise and directness to what Chelsea are trying to serve up.
Goals could be hard to come by for Maresca's team without their focal point in attack and when you throw in Manchester United's inability to put the ball in the net along with what is lurking on the horizon for them on Wednesday in Bilbao, the goal line set by the markets feels too high.
United have failed to score in 14 Premier League games this season - only Southampton, Everton (both 15) and Leicester (16) have blanked more. Since December 22 they have scored just 21 Premier League goals in their 20 games. The under 2.5 goals line is a big price at 13/8 with Sky Bet considering all the correct scores you get on your side.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1
The race for Champions League qualification is more competitive than ever with five Premier League teams guaranteed qualification, but who will make the cut?
The race for the top five is tight, with only six points separating second-placed Arsenal down to Nottingham Forest in seventh.
Chelsea and Aston Villa are level on 63 points with Forest on 62.
Premier League winners Liverpool have already guaranteed Champions League football, while Opta put Arsenal's prospects at 99.9 per cent.
Following their 2-2 draw at Anfield, the Gunners require one point from their remaining two fixtures to secure a top-five place.
Newcastle and Man City, despite their draw at Southampton, are also expected to qualify.
Newcastle's prospects of qualifying for the Champions League are now rated at 95 per cent by Opta's supercomputer with Man City's at 93 per cent.
But after their draw with Leicester, Forest's prospects have been reduced to 18 per cent, while Chelsea's stands at 56 per cent and Villa's have been raised to 40 per cent.
