This Weekend Premier League Football bets has Chelsea (9/4) who travel to Old Trafford on Sunday to face a Manchester United (5/4) team playing catch-up in the title race. United's Fifa World Club Cup-winning trip to Japan means that they now lie seven points behind leaders Liverpool with two games in hand. Chelsea, who remain unbeaten on the road in the Premier League this season, are three points off the pace, having played the same number of games as the Merseysiders. The Blues, who will be led by John Terry after the centre-back's serving of a three-game suspension, have not beaten United on their home patch for the last three seasons. They also face the side with the division's best home record - Sir Alex Ferguson's outfit are yet to lose at their headquarters. In the run-up to the pivotal contest, midfielder Frank Lampard has said that his team must cut out the careless defending which let Fulham off the hook to draw 2-2 in the recent west London derby.

"The errors have been very frustrating for everyone involved because we do work on them in training anyway," said the free-scoring midfielder, who bagged a brace at Craven Cottage and is 9/1 to net first. "We can't afford to let that happen against a team of Manchester United's calibre." With winger Florent Malouda still unavailable, Blues boss Luis Felipe Scolari may choose to direct his attack through the heart of the United defence - frontmen Didier Drogba and Nicloas Anelka are both 7/1 with Ladbrokes to open the scoring. Despite his late start to the season due to injury, Cristiano Ronaldo is already United's top league scorer with eight goals so far in the league this term - the Portuguese forward, who has been given plenty rest since New Year, is 9/2 to break the deadlock.
