United have had a strong record on the day after Christmas, with every previous manager post-Sir Alex Ferguson seeing their team score three goals in their first fixture on this date, a traditional one in the calendar.
Ferguson himself also pulled off a quite brilliant win in his first 26 December outing as Reds boss, leaving Anfield with a 1-0 success over Liverpool in 1986, courtesy of a Norman Whiteside strike.
We boast the best record in the league on this day, with a staggering 22 wins in the Premier League era, and will be looking to bounce back from Sunday's defeat to Bournemouth with three points.
