Analysis

That late August visit from Liverpool recalls Erik ten Hag’s first season, when an unlikely 2-1 win on a highly-charged evening at Old Trafford salvaged his difficult start to life as United manager.

Things have not got much easier since and Ten Hag will hope he does not go into that fixture once again needing a positive result to ease some early pressure.

United’s opening run is not too bad, although trips to Selhurst Park and Villa Park either side of a visit from Tottenham Hotspur arrive just as the expanded Europa League campaign gets underway.

Ten Hag’s side will visit the Etihad Stadium only a fortnight after returning from the Emirates in December but meetings with the rest of the so-called ‘big six’ never follow one after another and, for the most part, are spread out.

United’s closing pair of fixtures could be crucial, though, against two other clubs whose ambition will be qualifying for the Champions League.

If that is still in play by the time of United’s trip to Stamford Bridge on the penultimate weekend and the visit from Aston Villa on the final day, that’ll at least be an improvement on last season.

Key dates for the 2024-25 season

The transfer window officially opened on Friday, June 14, with the infamous cut-off date for the 2023-24 profit and sustainability rules (PSR) reporting period coming at the end of the month on June 30. The window closes on Friday, August 30, at 11pm BST (6pm ET).

The winter transfer window will open on Wednesday, January 1, closing on Monday, February 3.

The new Premier League season gets underway on the weekend of August 16-18, a week after the Community Shield. That game will be another Manchester derby and a replay of last season’s FA Cup final.

The Premier League season finishes on Sunday, May 25, when all 10 fixtures will be played at the same time.

Premier League clubs will enter the FA Cup at the third round, which begins on Saturday, January 11. The Carabao Cup will begin in mid-August with Premier League teams not playing in Europe entering in the second round and the remaining seven clubs receiving a bye to the third round.

The newly-expanded Champions League, meanwhile, begins on September 17. The Europa League starts on September 25 and the Conference League gets underway on October 3.

What about the Europa League?

Manchester United’s FA Cup triumph last season secured Europa League football for the coming campaign.

Next season’s Europa League will be the first under a new format, as all three of UEFA’s club competitions undergo a reshuffle.

The Europa League group stage will become a single 36-team league phase. Each side plays eight different teams — four at home and four away — and the top eight automatically progress to the last 16. Ninth to 24th contest a knockout round play-off to determine the remaining eight last 16 sides.

The Europa League final takes place at theSan Mames Stadium in Bilbao.
