The biggest Premier League game of the weekend is arguably Chelsea v Manchester United in the early kickoff at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Jose Mourinho has been the face of the buildup given that the United manager will be going up against his former club.

However, there is one man who Chelsea fans have been talking about  and he will be an important figure on the pitch.

Mike Dean has been confirmed by the Premier League as the man in the middle for the contest at the Bridge.

The Wirral-born referee is one of the more experienced officials in the pack, and this season he has not been shy when brandishing red cards.

In fact, Dean has sent off three players in six top-flight matches this season, which has got some Chelsea fans worried.

The pressure is on Maurizio Sarri's side to maintain their unbeaten run, and news of the refereeing appointment has caused some concern.
