The game to watch today would be the Man City vs Chelsa game.
Man City draw their last 5 games while Chelsea won their last 5.
Hope Man City can break Chelsea's form.

Wah Chelsea lost 2-1! All goals are scored by Man City. :bsmilie: Given saved a Lampard penalty, excellent job.
The win against West Ham was quite costly in terms of injuries. Both Neville and Brown limped off. Total, we have a massive 8 defenders out injured. How to field a defence against Wolfsburg? The 8 defenders out are: Rio, Vidic, Evans, Oshea, Rafael, Fabio plus Neville and Brown. Besides, even VDS is out! What on earth is going on?

Its seems like Vidic will be out for the Wolfsburg match. He din travel with the squad. 8 defenders out, left Evra the sole defender around. Reported that Fletcher and Carrick will have to play central defence. Really stunning situation! :bigeyes:

Then Man Utd will play defensive. Protect the goal and do counterattack.
United are facing an injury crisis of epic proportions, and not just in defence, with Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov joining an ever-increasing list of players on the treatment table.
There was a further blow to the Reds' rearguard with news that John O'Shea and Jonny Evans will both be out until the New Year.
Sir Alex took a depleted Reds squad to Germany for United's final Group B game with Wolfsburg - a 19-man group containing 13 midfielders.
The United boss first faces a headache trying to select a team to tackle the German champions, but also has an eye on an ever more tricky league tie with Aston Villa on Saturday.
United hope Wes Brown (hamstring) and Nemanja Vidic (flu) will replenish the Reds' decimated defence. But the injury problems don't stop there. Neither Rooney (hamstring) nor Berbatov (knee) travelled to Germany and both men are doubtful to play against Villa.
“There’s no good news with all these injured players," the boss said at his pre-Wolfsburg press conference on Monday. "We've left several players behind and have a lot of thinking to do about team selection."
Patrice Evra is the only fit and recognised defender in the team out in Germany, and Sir Alex at least isn't letting the situation get him down too much. “It’s worth trying one defender!" he joked. "Manchester United are always first at doing something, so we will try and do that again on Tuesday by playing with just one defender!
"We know we have a difficult task picking a back four that can unite together and give me good organisation and good passing ability considering we don’t have natural centre-backs. These are the decisions we are addressing, and hopefully we get the answer."
With United already through to the next round of the Champions League, domestic matters take precedence. But the picture is no less bleak on that front.
"As we've explained with Rio Ferdinand, we don't have a time schedule for him, and John O'Shea and Jonny Evans are both out until January. They’re out for a few weeks, and they're the major injuries as it stands.
"Rafael and Fabio will certainly not [feature against Villa]. We're hoping that we can have Wes Brown fit for Saturday. But it's a strain and it won't be an easy one."
There was some good news in that Ryan Giggs, also missing from the group that travelled to Wolfsburg, will be fit for Saturday. But the news regarding Berbatov and Rooney is less positive.
"We left Ryan behind because we’ve been playing him in one game a week and that has worked for us. He is fit for Saturday, but Berbatov and Rooney are both doubtful."

Still got VDS also out!
Our injury list seems to be ever growing!:sweatsm: We should be happy if we can come away with a pt!:bsmilie:
