Red Devils face tough derby tests and crucial cup ties. See their path after the Leeds draw.
Manchester United continues with an irregular pace in the Premier League. This weekend, the Red Devils drew 1-1 against Leeds United.
Below we share what the next fixtures will be for the squad led by Ruben Amorim.
Burnley vs. Manchester United, Premier League Matchday 21
Three days later, another theoretically accessible game for the side led by Ruben Amorim, as Burnley is second-to-last in the Premier League table, aside from the fact that the match in question will be away.
- Jan. 7, 2026: Burnley vs. Manchester United - Premier League (3:15 p.m. ET US, 2:15 p.m. MX, 8:15 p.m. UK)
Manchester United vs. Brighton, FA Cup Third Round
Indeed, the Seagulls often make life difficult for England's big clubs; however, that team is going through a negative moment, coupled with the fact that the match in question will be at Old Trafford, which translates into an important opportunity for Manchester United to advance to the next stage of the world's oldest tournament.
- Jan. 11, 2026: Manchester United vs. Brighton - FA Cup (11:30 a.m. ET US, 10:30 a.m. MX, 4:30 p.m. UK)
Manchester United vs. Manchester City, Premier League Matchday 22
In a derby that could mark the course of the season for the Red Devils, they will host Pep Guardiola's side, which is in great form and fighting the Premier League inch by inch with leader Arsenal. The big question at this time is whether Bruno Fernandes will be able to return for such a crucial match.

Arsenal vs. Manchester United, Premier League Matchday 23
Since September 2022, United has not been able to beat the Gunners in any competition. Added to the good moment their rivals are currently having in the Premier League, it will not be a friendly match at all for the Red Devils.

Manchester United vs. Fulham, Premier League Matchday 24
These teams usually offer very tight matches; in their last five meetings in the league competition, only eight goals were scored between them. Raul Jimenez's team is in mid-table and wants points; it remains to be seen if at Old Trafford, United wants to give them.
- Jan. 17, 2026: Manchester United vs. Fulham - Premier League Matchday 24 (9:00 a.m. ET US, 8:00 a.m. MX, 2:00 p.m. UK)
