Manchester United have now lost 12 of their 25 Premier League games this season, with Ruben Amorim overseeing eight of them having won 14 points from as many games at the helm.

The same ratio would see the Red Devils finish the season on 42 points, comfortably enough to avoid relegation barring an extraordinary upturn in form from either Ipswich or Leicester, but we reckon that’s overly optimistic.

Since the Premier League shifted to a 38-game season in the 1995-96 campaign an average of 35.6 points has been required to avoid the drop, and our genuine predictions for Manchester United’s last 13 games will see Ruben Amorim’s side fall short of that mark.

Thirteen points from a possible 18 for David Moyes, who coincidentally had a win rate of 57% as Manchester United boss to Amorim’s 43%, the lowest of anyone post-Sir Alex Ferguson. will chew them up and spit them out.

We’re being generous here if anything as the New Manager Bounce in Amorim’s very first Premier League game in charge saw ; Andre Onana was outstanding on the day.

Manchester United’s only hope is of Michael Oliver and Chris Kavanagh.

and given they’ve beaten the Foxes by an aggregate score of 10-3 across their three meetings so far this season, with good reason. A manager swap for that one could be useful though, given two of those three wins came in consecutive games under Foxes coach Ruud van Nistelrooy.
