Lawro predicts United to draw against Chelsea

BBC football pundit Mark Lawrenson has predicted that Manchester United will draw against Chelsea on Saturday.

He told BBC Sport Online: “Man Utd have suffered a massive blow after losing top scorer Wayne Rooney to injury. It means Dimitar Berbatov will definitely play and maybe Federico Macheda, who made such an impact on the title race last season, could be involved.

“Seemingly there are no such worries up front for Chelsea, who have rattled in 12 goals in their last two games.

“But it will be close – I can see this being a draw. And I think that would be acceptable for United, who will want to absorb the loss of Rooney and ensure they do not lose to their title rivals.

“Prediction: 1-1.”
