From Brentford battering to Anfield annihilation: Man Utd's worst away days in 2022-23 - ranked

Spare a thought for Manchester United's away fans this season. They have travelled all around the country to follow their team, parting with their hard-earned money and spending hundreds of hours away from their families. And time and time again, they have been treated to shambolic performances.

Alexis Mac Allister's 99th-minute penalty for Brighton inflicted a seventh away defeat on Erik ten Hag's side this season in the Premier League, and their eighth away loss in all competitions. Indeed, they've been particularly bad against the stronger teams, losing seven out of eight away matches against the top nine in the table.

The only top-nine team they haven't lost to away from home is Tottenham, and their 2-2 draw last month actually felt a bit like a defeat after squandering a two-goal advantage at half-time. From away matches against teams in the top 12 positions, they have picked up only six points from a potential 33. And they failed to win away at Chelsea, who are having one of their worst seasons in Premier League history, and could not win away to Patrick Vieira's Crystal Palace, when the Eagles were in relegation form.
