'Opta' predicted that Manchester United has a 10.95% chance of being demoted after Manchester United suffered a 0-3 defeat by rival Manchester City in the first Manchester Derby (fourth round of the English Premier League) of the 2025-2026 season at Etihad Stadium in Manchester, England on the 15th (Korea time).
Surprisingly, Manchester United's relegation probability was more than twice that of advancing to the European Champions League (4.18 percent) next season.
Manchester United's current ranking says it all. Manchester United, which had only one win (four points) in four games, fell to 14th place. It is one step away from 15th place in the 2024-2025 season, which was the worst performance since the launch of the EPL. It is only one point away from West Ham (3 points), which is ranked 18th in the relegation zone.

Liverpool is considered the 0th favorite with a 51.12% chance of winning. Arsenal are closely trailing Liverpool with 26.74%. The three teams most likely to be relegated are Burnley (52.23%), Wolverhampton (50.76%) and Sunderland (46.02%).
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim's winning percentage has fallen to 26%. It is the third lowest record among managers in Manchester United's history to command more than 20 games. Locally, manager Amorim is criticizing Manchester United for lowering the 'standard'.
However, Portuguese coach Amorim makes it clear that he has no intention of changing his philosophy immediately, with the team falling without wings.
He said after the game, `I understand everything. You have to accept the result``. "The record says it all. This is my message to the fans. I'm going to put everything into thinking about what's best for the club. I will do my best until I leave this place. The rest is not up to me to decide."

Manchester United, which lost the first goal to Phil Foden in the 18th minute of the first half, allowed Elling Holan to score consecutive goals in the 8th and 13th minutes of the second half. The strikers (Benjamin Seschko, Brian Mbomo, etc.) that Manchester United recruited at hundreds of billions of won shot a total of 12 shots but failed to score a goal against Manchester City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, who made his debut on the day.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola said Holan, who has already scored five goals in four games, is performing better than in the 2023-2024 season, when he achieved a treble, expecting it to be an `all-time season.'
