At the same time Chelsea play Manchester City at Stamford Bridge, Manchester United have a chance to take advantage of any slip-ups in that game when they play Aston Villa.
United beat West Ham 2-1 in dramatic fashion last Sunday when Jesse Lingard scored late on before Mark Noble missed an injury-time penalty for the Hammers.
Under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, United have laboured at times in the early stages of the season but they sit level at the top of the table with Chelsea and Liverpool on 13 points.
Cristiano Ronaldo will be out to continue his good goalscoring form after four goals in his first three games back at Old Trafford.
It is unlikely to be easy for United against a Villa side who look to be getting into their stride after an impressive 3-0 win over Everton last weekend.
