Manchester United were excellent in the debut of their new coach when they destroyed Cardiff on the road, and will now return home for another easy match. They will play host to Huddersfield on Wednesday, who are coming into this match after five consecutive losses. This looks like an easy home win.

Manchester United (8-5-5) really benefited from the change in coach, as the struggling Red Devils broke out for a massive 5-1 away win against Cardiff. They were already leading by two goals at the end of the first half and went on to destroy their opponents. That win came after two consecutive losses for Manchester United and it was just their second in their last six (2-2-2). They are now sitting at the 6th spot of the league table with 29 points, still eight behind Arsenal and Chelsea. Manchester United have been great at home so far (4-1-3), where they have scored 14 goals and have conceded 11.
Huddersfield (2-12-4) are having a really poor season so far and that is not about to change any time soon. In their last match they met another loss, this time a heavy 3-1 at home against Southampton. Their opponents were better in the first half and took a two-goal lead, while both teams scored in the second half for the final 3-1. That was the fifth consecutive loss for Huddersfield who have scored just three times in that span. They are sitting at the penultimate spot of the Premier League with 10 points, featuring by far the worst offense in the league with just 11 goals.

The two teams last met in the round of 16 of the FA Cup last season where Manchester United won by 2-0 on the road. But the two teams exchanged home wins in the Premier League last season. Now Manchester United did great to please new coach Solskjaer and should continue to do so at home.
