Chelsea midfielder Eden Hazard hopes to start against Manchester United today.

Last season's corresponding fixture to today saw the Blues secure a pivotal three points as we closed in on the title. It holds happy memories for Hazard, who scored the only goal of the game in the first half, racing on to an Oscar flick and sliding the ball between the legs of David De Gea.

"It's always good to win against Man United and it's even better when you score the winning goal," he told chelseafc.com. "Hopefully we can do it again but obviously it's going to be a tough game. If the 11 players on the pitch, and those on the bench, give everything we have a great chance.

"We are unbeaten in 10 games now and I hope it will be 11. Both sides are playing well at the moment. We have our confidence back and it's very important for us to win because we want to close the gap, which is very big. We want to finish in the top six, or even the top four if possible, so we need to win matches."
