Evening all, and welcome to Norwich City v Manchester United!

Ralf Rangnick wants his team to keep developing in terms of how they press, to keep a clean sheet, and he knows they'll always be dangerous. He had no reason to change the team because United played well last week, so prepared for the game with the same XI and asked specifically about the preference for Telles over Shaw, says he was happy with both full-backs against Palace.

I'm really looking forward to seeing how Billy Gilmour does. He'll need to be very smart in his use of the ball, in fact he'll need to be quick-smart, because United will be on him. And he'll by relying on Pukki to hold the ball up, so Rupp and McLean can support him - though, like United, Norwich will be relying on the full-backs for width.

Norwich will play 5-3-2, United will have to find ways around the sides. That might be difficult given they rely on the full-backs for width, and I daresay Jadon Sancho, who has the ability to beat men in tight spaces, will be useful.

Chelsea have beaten Leeds 3-2, and there was some decent scuffling at the end just to keep up tradition.

Yup, Liverpool have beaten Villa on Steven Gerrard's return to Anfield, a Mohamed Salah penalty settling things.

Jorginho has just scored his second penalty of the afternoon so Chelsea lead Leeds 3-2; the top three have all struggled, but it looks like they'll all win as well.

I did, though, wonder if Greenwood would replace Rashford, who's been poor after scoring a few quick goals on his return from injury. I know Rangnick wants his pace in behind, to stretch the play, but if Norwich sit deep that won't matter too much as I don't think he's playing well enough to stay in.

We can't quite say that Wan-Bissaka has lost his place to Dalot because he isn't fit - he hurt his wrist falling down the slope just before full-time on Wednesday night - but he pretty much has. Now United have some midfield protection and defensive organisation, they can afford to have a full-back who can attack, and Dalot is able to pass off either foot, as well as beat men. During that heady early run under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, he played some decent stuff on the wing.

United, meanwhile, make 11 changes to the team that drew with Young Boys in midweek, or 0 changes to the team that beat Palace last Sunday.

Norwich make five changes from the side that lost 3-0 to Tottenham; we don't know for sure, but failed corona tests have probably played a role. Andrew Omobamidele and Ben Gibson aren't in the squad, while Pierre Lees-Melou and Adam Idah drop to the bench; Brandon Williams can't play against his parent club. Coming in are Ozan Kabak, Dimitris Giannoulis, Przemysław Płacheta, Josh Sargent and Lukas Rupp.

Let's have some teams...

This is sizable game for both clubs, and the pair of them are in similar positions - yes, in a way. Both started the season in hilariously miserable fashion, but fired their managers later than they ought to have done, and now both are improving quickly.

Norwich will still have to work hard to stay up, but before the appointment of Dean Smith, that looked an impossibility. Real talk, though Newcastle and Watford might be worse, it's hard to see them getting more points than anyone else - they've scored at least fewer goals than every other side in the league, and conceded at least one more than every other side in the league. Make no mistake about it, they're in shtuck.

United, meanwhile, have pulled themselves together just in time. The title is gone - and had the players performed to their maximum, they had the ability to challenge - but they're now well-placed to make the top four and still in the Champions League. That said, given the way they hobbled through the final part of last season, it's a fair while since they played well consistently and if Ralf Rangnick can't make that happen, he won't be in the big chair for long.
