Courtois did not travel to Old Trafford with the Chelsea squad, meaning Asmir Begovic will deputise for one of the biggest matches of the season.

The Premier League leaders saw their margin trimmed to four points by Tottenham on Saturday, and face former manager Jose Mourinho whose Manchester United side have not lost a league game since October when they were beaten 4-0 at Stamford Bridge.
