Chelsea continued their good form with a 4-2 away win at Burnley on Saturday. They are fourth in the Premier League table, three places and four points above their rivals in this EFL Cup. The Blues are unbeaten in their last six games, each of which have produced a victory. It's a great comeback after losing their previous two games. The goals have been flowing from their young side with 21 goals scored. Home form has seen them win their last three including a 7-1 win over Grimsby Town in the EFL Cup third round. A good performance against United will mean a lot to them after that 4-0 away loss on the opening weekend of the season.

Manchester United won at Norwich City on Sunday and that took them up to seventh in the Premier League. They last won this competition in 2017, two years after Chelsea won the cup. United are undefeated in their last three games ending a run of four away matches without a win. Norwich away isn't the hardest of games at present and again United will make plenty of changes for this match. Their last three games in this competition don't make for inspiring reading. They have been knocked out by Derby County and Bristol City and needed penalties to get past Rochdale at home in the third round this year. Chelsea can be backed to get the home win here.
