London: Alvaro Morata and Romelu Lukaku will be under pressure to fire their teams back into the Premier League title race when the misfiring strikers clash in Chelsea’s showdown with Manchester United on Sunday. Chelsea forward Morata and United front man Lukaku were the toast of their clubs after celebrating their close-season transfers with a barrage of goals. Morata hit the ground running with seven goals in his first seven games following his club record $75 m move from Real Madrid. In the circumstances, Morata and Lukaku could do with silencing the critics by producing a priceless winner at the Bridge. That will be the case in west London this weekend as champions Chelsea try to claw their way back into the title race.
