Manchester United will Taraftarium24 host Wolverhampton Wanderers in a Premier League fixture at Old Trafford on Saturday.
The Red Devils have made their home a fortress as they have won 24 matches at Old Trafford in all competitions this season; only in 2002-03 (27), 2007-08 (25) and 2010-11 (26) have the Red Devils ever enjoyed more home wins in a single campaign.
Moreover, they have kept a clean sheet in each of their last five Premier League home games, last recording more in a row from May to October 2017 (6), and within a single season from December 2009 to March 2010 (7). All eyes will be on Marcus Rashford as he has scored 19 home goals in all competitions for Manchester United this season – the last player to net more at Old Trafford in a single campaign was Wayne Rooney (20 in 2009-10).
After losing their last two matches in the league, United will be eager to bounce back to winning ways as Liverpool are breathing down their necks for the much sought-after fourth spot which will ensure Champions League qualification next season.
Meanwhile, Wolves are in the 13th spot with nothing much to lose as they are safe from relegation.
