Today on LiveScore: Wednesday previews and Chelsea reaction

There are two intriguing Premier League fixtures on the menu this evening as Manchester United head to Brentford and Leicester host Tottenham.

We take a closer look at out-of-favour United duo Donny van de Beek and Jadon Sancho, bring you all the key statistics ahead of tonight’s clashes and put Chelsea’s recent problems under the spotlight. 

Premier League action

Issues are still present for Ralf Rangnick at United after he watched his Red Devils let a two-goal lead slip against Aston Villa on Saturday, making it just one win in their last four Premier League outings.

It was another disappointing evening for midfielder Van de Beek, who only made it onto the field for the closing moments at Villa Park.

But Rangnick has confirmed the Dutchman will not leave the club this January, suggesting he is still in the United manager’s plans at Old Trafford.

Another who will be disappointed with his recent game time is Sancho, who has seemingly fallen behind Anthony Elanga in the pecking order after the 19-year-old was named in the starting XI on Saturday.

We look at what is going wrong for the £73million summer signing — seemingly unfancied by both Rangnick and previous boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

With Spurs also up against Leicester tonight, our extensive Wednesday preview will get you fully in the know with kick-off times, television information and a host of statistics.

Chelsea’s problems

After letting yet another lead slip against Brighton, Chelsea are without a win in the Premier League since Boxing Day.

Their hopes of winning the title are now surely over and pressure is growing on Thomas Tuchel despite delivering the Blues the Champions League last season.

We take a closer look at the mounting problems in West London.
