Fixture difficulty of Ruben Amorim’s first 5 Premier League games at Man Utd

After the trip to Suffolk, United start December by hosting Everton at Old Trafford for Amorim’s first home game. Then the difficulty ramps up with trips to Arsenal and Manchester City, either side of a visit from in-form Nottingham Forest.

Opta analysis has given United’s fixture list an average opponent rating of 90.8. Only six clubs are considered to have a more difficult run of games over the same period – that includes Manchester City, who aside from facing United, are also up against Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool, Forest and Crystal Palace.
