United then round off the month with trips to Southampton (August 27) and Leicester (August 30) before another tricky test to start September. Ten Hag’s side host Arsenal on September 3, when they’ll look to make an early statement of intent as they aim for a top four finish.
A trip to Crystal Palace follows a week later, with United hosting Leeds (September 17) in their final fixture before the first international break of the season. The question is, what position will they be in at that point?
