Chelsea maintained its unbeaten run with manager Thomas Tuchel after they were held back goalless by Man United and settled for one point each rather than give the other a three-point advantage. In another match, Liverpool beat Sheffield United by 2-0 and put an end to the four-week disappointing run by the defending champions. The German-style leadership is paying off with a great performance on the defense side at Stamford Bridge, there were compactness and solidity in the form, unlike Frank Lampard's open formation.
Tuchel’s army remains unbeaten in all competitions for the 9th time and could even replace West Ham at the fourth soon. City is currently at the top of the table with 12 points lead over Man Utd.
