Chelsea vs Manchester United Champions League: Live Score and Update


If you are a football fan, then I do fell your current excitement over the tonight’s Champions League showdown between Chelsea and Manchester United. British football fans are preparing a celebrating bash in Moscow now. The match will take place at the Luzhniki stadium of Moscow, Russia. The match kicks off at 19:45 BST (22:45 Moscow Time). This is the centre of all attention in the football world at this moment. Here, I am giving some latest news regarding the squads of both sides.

Chelsea left back Ashley Cole has suffered a heavy blow to his right ankle during a practice session on Tuesday. Having sprayed and strapped up his ankle, Ashley Cole later joined the final training session. However, he is not yet confirmed for the starting line up of Chelsea, though Chelsea has not left their hope on Cole. If Cole can not recover his injury and miss out the starting line up, then Wayne Bridge would come in to play in the left back position of Chelsea.

However, the good news for Chelsea is that Captain John Terry has recovered from the elbow injury he sustained in the last match of premier league. His central midfield partner, Ricardo Carvalho has also got over the injury problem, while striker Didier Drogba is fit enough to take up his job of a lone striker up front of Chelsea attack.

Manchester United has no major injury news at this moment. However, alike Chelsea, Manchester United left Nemanja Vidic may have problem as he sat out during the final practice session of Manchester United on Tuesday. The Serbian left back picked up a facial injury during his side’s 1-2 defeat to Chelsea last month in premier league. However, there may not have anything serious with Vidic because nothing is officially disclosed until now.

So, both sides seem to have full strength squad barring Ashley Cole’s ankle injury of last night. It is definitely good news for the managers of both sides because they have many options now ahead of the match.
