With just one point separating these two teams in the Premier League, Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final looks set to be a close encounter – read on to find out how to get an Man United vs Chelsea live stream and watch the FA Cup clash online from anywhere.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men come into the game looking to extend their unbeaten run to an impressive 20 matches. Revitalised since the acquisition of Bruno Fernandes in midfield, United’s superb form has also seen the emergence of Mason Greenwood as a bona fide Premier League talent. Add in much improved performances from Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford and United can now boast arguably the most deadly attacking quartet in European football right now.

Frank Lampard has also enjoyed an impressive first campaign as Chelsea boss, having managed to get the West London club within touching distance of a league top four finish, despite having to navigate losing Blues talisman Eden Hazard and a transfer ban. Lampard would dearly love to cap a satisfying first season in the Stamford Bridge hotseat with some silverware, however getting past the Red Devils
in their current form looks like a tall order.

The two sides have met three times already this season, with the Solskjaer’s Red Devils winning each of those clashes.
