The Reds have won 17 of our previous 26 fixtures on the first weekend of the season, more than any other club, drawing four and losing five.
Since the Premier League began in 1992, United have averaged 2.12 points per game from the opening weekend fixtures, with Huddersfield Town being the only side in the top flight who can better that tally.
The Terriers won their one and first game of the Premier League season last year, beating Crystal Palace 3-0, as David Wagner's side ultimately enjoyed a successful campaign in the top flight.
United do, however, have the best opening-day record of any side who have been present in the Premier League for more than five years.
