An unsettling statistic has revealed the Red Devils’ home struggles, where visiting teams have outperformed them this term.
Manchester United suffered consecutive 3-0 Premier League losses at Old Trafford in Sunday's defeat against Tottenham Hotspur.
Man Utd vs Tottenham
Goals from Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke gave Ange Postecoglou's men a deserved triumph against Erik ten Hag's side, who had Bruno Fernandes dismissed just before the interlude.
Sunday’s loss came after a defeat by the same score against Liverpool at the start of September, thus leaving the Red Devils with a sole victory on home soil after three fixtures, with their only triumph an unconvincing 1-0 success over Fulham in gameweek one.
Stat highlights Man Utd Old Trafford struggle
A standout statistic underscoring the Manchester outfit's challenges emerged after Spurs' dominant victory, with two opponents — Kulusevski (9) and Fulham's Andreas Pereira (5) — fashioning more chances at the Theatre of Dreams than any United player this term, with Casemiro (5), Marcus Rashford, Mason Mount and Alejandro Garnacho (all on four) trailing opponents from both London clubs.
What next for Man Utd?
Ten Hag’s team travel to Porto on October 3 before a daunting visit to Villa Park three days later to take on Unai Emery's Aston Villa.
