Dejan Kulusevski is the most recent name to get added to the list as the forward underwent surgery, but the return of skipper Heung-min Son should boost the squad&rsquo;s morale ahead of their most crucial match of the season.<\/p><p><strong>ALSO READ: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/chelsea-vs-manchester-united-preview-odds-prediction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Chelsea vs Manchester United Preview, Odds, &amp; Prediction<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aston Villa vs Tottenham Hotspur Under\/Over Predictions<\/h2><p>The Playoffs aim to facilitate the safest bets for the game.
