Chelsea vs Manchester United is always one of the biggest Premier League fixtures of the season. Both teams have won more Premier League titles than any other teams over the past decade... 

It's the classic red verses blue, north verses south encounter full of international superstars! I have no doubt that the clash tomorrow between Manchester United's Wayne Rooney and Chelsea's John Terry will be as hard fought and full of as much drama as it was nearly 40 years ago between Manchester United's George Best and Chelsea's 'Chopper Harris'!  

In this fixture last season Chelsea kept their faint Premier League title hopes alive and damaged Manchester United's own ambitions as they came from behind to beat the leaders 2-1 with second half goals from David Luiz and an 80th minute penalty from 'Super' Frankie Lampard. However, United of course went on to win the league for a record 12th time, leaving Chelsea to finish second. This season however Chelsea are down in fourth position as Manchester United, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspurs vie for the top spot. Still, there are 14 games to go 'til the end of the seaon....anything can happen! As a Chelsea fan I'm of course hoping that Torres puts his lucky boots on today and starts putting the ball in the back of the net! 

Kick off is at 4PM and you can watch it live on Sky Sports 1 and highlights on Match of the Day 2; or listen on BBC Radio 5 live and local radio; or follow my twitter commentary @MrGumball3000 as its often quicker than @Chelseafc. This is not a match to be missed, I've come back from New York to watch this one and I'll be there with my 6 year old son, Cash Cooper (the future England and Chelsea Captain) cheering on the BLUES!
