West Ham end Old Trafford

Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, Newcastle United, Brighton & Hove Albion, Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton Wanderers have all won at Old Trafford in the Premier League this season. It is no longer the fortress it use to be.

Man Utd’s worst ever win-less Premier League run

While the Europa League has a largely enjoyable watch this season, Manchester United have now equalled their longest ever win-less run in the Premier League: seven games.

They haven’t won in the league since เล่นเกมคาสิโน UFABET ทันสมัย ฝากถอนง่าย the middle of March, when a hopeless Leicester City were the opposition. Further fixtures against Nottingham Forest, Manchester City, Newcastle United, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Bournemouth, Brentford and now West Ham have come since then.

The difference then was that most of those games finished as draws and the run came to an immediate end when Eric Cantona arrived in November 1992, at which point the team went on an outstanding run to claim the title by May.
