Its first league title was in the 1907-08 season and the last one was almost ten years ago in the 2012-13 season. But not only that, he has won 17 times the Community Shield, 2 Championship, 12 FA Cup, 5 EFL Cup, 1 Cup Winners' Cup at national level. He has also won 3 UEFA Champions League, 1 FIFA Club World Cup, 1 Europa League, 1 UEFA Super Cup and 1 Intercontinental Cup at international level. Within the reach of very few teams.
Today, they have the best squad in Europe. After the recent signings of Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho, Cristiano Ronaldo, few teams can count on so many world stars in their ranks. Moreover, remember other stars already present such as Bruno Fernandes, De Gea, Rashford, Mason Greenwood, Edison Cavani, Maguire, Pogba, etc. Having a coach like Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also helps the team to be so successful and fight to win as many titles as possible.
Top rivals
Despite being the most successful team in the Premier League, Manchester United has many rivals at national and international level. Of course, there are the big teams in the big leagues: Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munchen, Borussia Dortmund, PSG, Juventus, etc.
On a national level, in England, there is a high level in the different teams. One of their biggest rivals is Liverpool, who are in first position in the Premier League historical ranking with 107 seasons played, 5,807 points and 1968 games won. Arsenal are second and United third with 97 seasons played, 5,509 points and 1,837 games played.
Other big rivals for the Red Devils are Manchester City, from the same city, and London teams such as Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham. All these teams are in the fight every season to win the Premier League and to qualify for the Champions League. This year, in the first 5 matchdays, Chelsea are leading, tied on points with Liverpool and Man United. In fourth place is Brighton and Man City are in 5th place at the moment. Tottenham are seventh and Arsenal, who have made the worst start to the season, are 13th.
As for the EPL betting odds, the English league is quite difficult to predict due to the high level of its teams, but if you get some bets right, you can get quite a lot of money. So place your bets to see who will win the league championship this year. You can also place your bets on United's next game against Aston Villa at home on 25th September.
