Carrick's two-game managerial reign will take a stern barracking at Chelsea on Sunday

Michael Carrick took over Manchester United as the caretaker manager last Sunday after the club parted ways with the former gaffer, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and his managerial record could be just two matches, of which he won the first away to Villarreal last Wednesday.

After a tepid first-half performance, Cristiano Ronaldo and Sancho gave the Red Devils a 2-0 win that guaranteed passage to the round of 16.The Mancunians have not won any game in November. The thrashing at Watford last weekend means United have conceded six goals and scored just once in the last two league games against Manchester City and Watford.

In November, Chelsea have conceded one goal and scored nine even though Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner have been missing for the last month. Werner returned against Juventus with a goal while Lukaku was on the bench in the Champions League encounter.The battle of the oldies promises to be an exciting one. Silva has been the picture of calm and control as Chelsea have demolished opponents both in the EPL and in the Champions League.
