Matches[]

The 2024–25 Premier League fixtures were released on 18 June 2024. Manchester United opened their Premier League campaign on 16 August 2024 with a 1–0 win over Fulham. Substitute and debutant Joshua Zirkzee scored the only goal of the match in the 87th minute. United then travelled to the Amex Stadium to take on Brighton & Hove Albion. Former United man Danny Welbeck opened the scoring in the 30th minute, capitalising on a defensive mistake. Amad Diallo then levelled the scores in the 61st minute, before United put the ball in the back of the net again through Alejandro Garnacho; however, replays showed that Zirkzee had accidentally tapped the ball into the net from an offside position while attempting to stand up, causing the goal to be ruled out. João Pedro then scored a late winner with an unmarked header at the backpost, condemning the Red Devils to a first league defeat of the season. United then hosted arch-rivals Liverpool at home; although United started well, Trent Alexander-Arnold had the ball in their net in the 8th minute, although the goal was ultimately ruled out for offside. By half-time, United found themselves 2–0 down due to a brace of goals from Luis Díaz. Mohamed Salah scored a third goal for Liverpool in the 56th minute to seal a 3–0 defeat for United.

United then travelled to St Mary's Stadium to face newly promoted Southampton. Two first half goals from Matthijs de Ligt and Marcus Rashford in quick succession, after United goalkeeper André Onana had been forced into a penalty save, meant the game was comfortable for United. Garnacho then came off the bench to score a third in second half stoppage time, securing a second victory of the season. United's next game against Crystal Palace was a 0–0 draw, where Onana gained his third clean sheet of the season after being forced into a double-save that later won Premier League Save of the Month for September. To close the month, the Red Devils hosted Tottenham Hotspur, and they conceded in the third minute after centre-back Micky van de Ven was allowed to run through the midfield unchallenged before setting up Brennan Johnson to score. Bruno Fernandes was sent off for the first time in his career after a late tackle on James Maddison, leaving United with 10 men just before half-time. The second half was marked by goals from Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke, sealing a second 3–0 defeat at home in a row.

To kick off October, United traveled to Aston Villa. An exemplary performance from defender Jonny Evans helped secure a clean sheet, though Villa's keeper and Man of the Match Emiliano Martínez held United to a goalless draw. This result left United with their worst start since the 1989–90 campaign. Two weeks later, following the international break, United hosted Brentford. The visitors opened the scoring when Ethan Pinnock headed in a corner in the fifth minute of stoppage time at the end of the first half. Garnacho equalised for United two minutes after the restart, before Rasmus Højlund scored in the 62nd minute to win the game 2–1. For the last Premier League game of October, United were away to West Ham. After a goalless first half, West Ham opened the scoring in the 74th minute through Crysencio Summerville. United were able to equalise in the 81st minute through a header from Casemiro, only for a penalty to be awarded late on for a collision between Matthijs de Ligt and Danny Ings inside Man Utd's penalty area; although it was not given on the field, a VAR check ultimately awarded West Ham a penalty. Jarrod Bowen scored from the spot in injury time to win the game for West Ham. This was manager Erik ten Hag's last game as Man Utd manager, as on 28 October it was announced that he had been sacked, and that Ruud van Nistelrooy would take over as the interim manager.

For the first game of November, United hosted Chelsea. United opened the scoring in the second half, with Rasmus Højlund being taken down in the box by Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sánchez with Bruno Fernandes subsequently converting the penalty. The lead did not last long, however, as just four minutes after scoring, Moisés Caicedo scored an equaliser with a volley from the edge of the box following a corner. The game ended in a 1–1 draw. United then hosted Leicester City and opened the scoring in the 17th minute through a Bruno Fernandes shot at the edge of the box into the bottom right corner. United scored again in the first half in the 38th minute as Noussair Mazraoui crossed in the ball, with it deflecting off both Bruno Fernandes and Leicester defender Victor Kristiansen into the Leicester net, going down as a Kristiansen own goal. To close the game, substitute Alejandro Garnacho scored a screamer from outside the box curling the ball into the top right corner, winning the game 3–0 for Man United. United's first game under newly appointed head coach Ruben Amorim came after another international break and saw them travel to Ipswich Town. United opened the scoring after just 90 seconds through Marcus Rashford, but were unable to hold onto their lead, as in the 43rd minute, Ipswich's Omari Hutchinson scored from a shot outside the box, deflecting off the head of Mazraoui into the top left corner of the goal. Neither side was able to convert their chances in the second half and the game ended in a 1–1 draw.

To open December, United hosted Everton. United won comfortably 4–0 with Rashford and Zirkzee both scoring twice. The following game was away against Arsenal, who won 2–0 through goals from Jurriën Timber and William Saliba, both coming from corners. United then hosted Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford. Forest centre back Nikola Milenković opened scoring in just the second minute from a corner. Rasmus Højlund was able to equalise in the 18th minute, scoring a rebound after Garnacho had his shot saved by Forest goalkeeper Matz Sels. Early in the second half Forest took the lead again through Morgan Gibbs-White scoring from outside of the box. Chris Wood then added to Forest's lead, scoring a looping header in the 54th minute. In the 61st minute, Bruno Fernandes scored a goal from the edge of the box, but United were unable to convert any of their other chances, and the game finished 3–2. It was the first time Forest had beaten United at Old Trafford since December 1994. Next was the Manchester derby away at the City of Manchester Stadium. City opened the scoring in the first half through a Joško Gvardiol header. Late on in the game, Amad Diallo intercepted a poor back-pass from Matheus Nunes, who brought Amad down inside the box, earning a penalty for United. Bruno Fernandes successfully converted the penalty to bring the game level. Less than two minutes later, a long ball over the top found Amad, who took the ball around Ederson with his first touch and scored with his second touch, winning the game 2–1 for Manchester United. Following this, United hosted Bournemouth. In the first half, United conceded from another set-piece as Dean Huijsen scored a flicked header from a Ryan Christie free-kick. In the second half, Noussair Mazraoui brought down Justin Kluivert in the box to concede a penalty, which Kluivert scored. Just two minutes after the penalty, Antoine Semenyo scored the final goal and United lost 3–0 at home to Bournemouth for the second season in a row. On Boxing Day, United travelled to Wolverhampton Wanderers where, early in the second half, captain Bruno Fernandes was sent off for a second yellow card. In the 58th minute, Matheus Cunha scored directly from a corner to give Wolves the lead. In the ninth minute of injury time, Hwang Hee-chan scored to end the game in a 2–0 defeat for United. For the last Premier League game of 2024, United hosted Newcastle, who scored twice in the opening 20 minutes through Alexander Isak and Joelinton, ending the year with a 2–0 loss for Manchester United.

On 19 January 2025, Amorim labelled his team as probably the worst in the history of the club after their 3–1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion. The defeat was the club's fourth in the past five games at Old Trafford. Following the defeat, the club sat in 13th in the table, 10 points above the relegation zone.
