After a shambolic 7-0 defeat against rivals Liverpool in the Premier League, Manchester United return to action at Old Trafford as they look to revive themselves from the routing at Anfield.
A positive for the Dutch manager could be his team’s record at Old Trafford with the Red Devils being unbeaten at the Theatre in their previous 20 encounters in all competitions.
Although the loss at Merseyside might have ruled United from finishing as Champions of England, Ten Hag would be hoping to see United finish second or third. With multiple clubs failing to break the fortress of Manchester, the Red Devils would look to produce another magical performance at the Theatre.
