United’s last victory over Chelsea came back in October 2012, when they prevailed 3-2 at Stamford Bridge.

The Red Devils almost threw the game away that day as well, with a two-goal lead surrendered.

Javier Hernandez snatched a winner, though, 15 minutes from time, with the Blues down to nine men by that stage after seeing Branislav Ivanovic and Fernando Torres sent off.
