Manchester United’s next five fixtures contrasted to Aston Villa and Tottenham following the dismal Chelsea draw.
Manchester United continue to set the framework for Ruben Amorim’s arrival, with Ruud van Nistelrooy overseeing a 1-0 victory over Premier League rivals Chelsea.
For all of the anticipation that should surround a top-flight game between these two teams, only one man has been the focus around Manchester United. However, before Amorim can join Sporting CP, he must perform certain duties.
The most recent was Chelsea’s visit, when a relatively dull match was livened up by Bruno Fernandes’ penalty kick and Moises Caicedo’s response, but both clubs will be frustrated that the prizes were split.
This is Man United’s second game without defeat since Erik ten Hag was fired on Monday, and the result moves them slightly higher in the league standings. The Manchester Evening News examines how the club’s next five encounters compare to its opponents for European qualifying.
