There are huge jets of water streaming out across the sun-drenched Selhurst Park pitch as the ground staff get their morning work under way.

Team news from this one coming up very shortly.

In the interests of unity and understanding, over the past few days we've been asking you to pick your combined Manchester United and Chelsea XI.

The results are in. Unfortunately there's no Tore Andre Flo - it's from the current crop only.

BBC Radio 5 live

You can tune in to BBC Radio 5 live throughout the day for commentary and reaction.

From 12:00 GMT there is commentary of Crystal Palace v Tottenham, followed by live updates from Old Trafford and the 14:05 start between Manchester United and Chelsea.

Then we are live from Wembley for commentary of the EFL Cup final between Manchester City and Arsenal - that kicks off at 16:30.

OK. What about the actual football then? Well, we all know Manchester City are going to throw away the title but for now, Sunday could see a bit of a shake-up among the Champions League also-rans.

Manchester United have slipped to third after Liverpool's win over West Ham yesterday, and Chelsea could move level on points with them with victory at Old Trafford.

And Tottenham. We haven't even come to them yet - they could well profit nicely with a victory at struggling Crystal Palace.

"I'm not interested in this topic. Both said something in the past, but we stop," Conte said on Friday.

In his news conference, Mourinho said: "I told you before I'm not going to speak about it. Not at all."

The Portuguese added: "Very good manager, fantastic team and that's what is important for me. Just that."

And so here we are, match-day morning, the page about to turn on a new chapter.

Conte: "When is the game against United? We can meet in a room. To try and explain about these comments. I don't know if he is ready to meet me in a room, just me and him.

"Before you make these kind of comments you must pay great attention, because you show you are a little man.

"In the past he was a little man in many circumstances, he's a little man in the present and for sure he will be a little man in the future. I consider him a little man and I consider him a man with a very low profile."

You know framing a barb as a peace offering will only raise the hackles higher. And Mourinho is a master of the form.

"The only thing I want to say to end the story is that yes, I made mistakes in the past on the touchline. Yes, I will make less but I think I will still make a few," he said.

"What never happened to me - and will never happen - is to be suspended for match-fixing. That never happened to me and will never happen."

"There is a person that continues to look here. You understand? He went away, but he continued to look here."

Antonio Conte there, almost calling Jose Mourinho a 'voyeur'...

"I am starting to be a bit annoyed. If you want to go to fight with me I am ready. I am improving a bit my English - because this is the real problem for me - otherwise we can go, we can go to fight."

It started with a word in the ear. October 2016.

Italian TV picked up Mourinho saying: "You don't celebrate like that at 4-0, you can do it at 1-0, otherwise it's humiliating for us."

This happened after Chelsea beat United 4-0 in Mourinho's first return to Stamford Bridge since his second sacking by the London club.

When the two teams met again in the league later that season - April 2017 - this is what Mourinho's face looked like.

And then there were Mourinho's clown comments. This is where it really started getting heated.

Can't we all just get along?

Water under the bridge?

Bygones?

Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte have this week tried to draw a line under their really quite bitter recent history.

However. Things will feel very different once they take to the Old Trafford pitch. It will be much harder than that to move on from what came before.
