New Delhi: Ruben Amorim takes charge of Manchester United for the first time, stepping into the spotlight as the youngest United head coach since Wilf McGuinness in 1969. The 39-year-old arrives with a glowing reputation, thanks to his success at Sporting Lisbon and a famous Champions League thrashing of Manchester City.
United fans are eager to see if Amorim can break the trend and win his opening game—something not even Sir Alex Ferguson managed.
He inherits a team that sits 13th in the Premier League, despite interim boss Ruud van Nistelrooy guiding them to a four-match unbeaten streak. Van Nistelrooy ended his brief stint with a Europa League win over PAOK and a convincing 3-0 victory against Leicester.
However, United’s away form remains a concern, with just one road win all season—a September triumph over Southampton.
On the other hand, Ipswich Town, led by former United coach Kieran McKenna, is looking to build on their shock 2-1 win at Tottenham. That result lifted them out of the relegation zone, but the Tractor Boys are still chasing their first home win of the campaign. However, history isn’t in their favour with Ipswich losing their last four meetings with Manchester United.
