Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel says victory for either side would be huge as second-placed Manchester United visit Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

And he warned the Blues that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s United can strike like a snake on the break.

Tuchel said: “They are a team that can hurt you in any second with individual quality, a team that can hurt you at any second with speed.

“They are a strong side away from home because they can defend compactly and are very good in transition with their wingers and Marcus Rashford.

“Bruno Fernandes has excellent delivery and then there’s Mason Greenwood, Edi Cavani, Anthony Martial, and whoever else plays will be a challenge to defend.

“So the implication is huge. If we get a win out of this game it’s huge for us, if they win it’s huge for them to put more points between us.”
