Man Utd vs Chelsea LIVE score updates at Old Trafford
Manchester United take on Chelsea in an eagerly-anticipated Premier League showdown at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon. While both sides find themselves in the shadow of runaway leaders Manchester City this season, they both have work to do in order to secure Champions League football next season. The match continue the personal rivalry between managers Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte. 

Romelu Lukuku delivered the goods against former club Chelsea as Manchester United came from behind to win 2-1 at Old Trafford.



Lukaku scored United's equaliser and then crossed for Jesse Lingard to head home the winner after Willian had fired the away side in front.

United's win saw them return to second place in the Premier League table, with Chelsea staying fifth.

That will feel sweet for Jose Mourinho. He gets one over on his old rival Antonio Conte and his former club Chelsea. This win for United restores them to second place but will also come as a major confidence boost.

They were second best for much of the first-half and fell behind to Willian before levelled thanks to Romelu Lukaku. 

15 minutes remained when Jesse Lingard headed home the winner for United, who were vastly improved after the break.
