Man Utd set for nightmare mid-season run which could define Premier League title challenge

The Champions League factor isn’t the only tough ask in United’s fixture list.

With the exception of a trip to Wolves on November 20, Man Utd play arguably the seven strongest teams in the division in succession.

October sees the Manchester club play four league fixtures, against Everton, FA Cup winners Leicester City, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur.

And November is barely any easier, with games scheduled against holders Man City, Watford, European champions Chelsea and then Arsenal.
