Manchester United see themselves second in the RDA power rankings. This is after a run of form that they’ve been showing but not stringing together this season. With wins three wins and two draws, United are only one of two teams with an unbeaten record in the past five games. With three straight wins against Tottenham, Crystal Palace, and West Brom, United are finally looking like a powerhouse.

United aren’t scoring may goals right now with only seven in their past five. This needs to improve drastically if they want to try to make a title challenge. Their defensive record of only three goals conceded in the past five is one of the best in the league and is getting results for the Red Devils. They are showing flashes of their offensive potential, but the potential needs to become consistent if they want to see themselves back in the top four. A title challenge could happen but they need to start scoring more.

Their next three games should continue United’s form. With games against Sunderland, Middlesbrough, and West Ham, United should be able to take maximum points if they want to get into the top four going into the New Year. They could drop points but their unbeaten streak doesn’t look like it’s slowing down and their form might continue.
This only leaves one other team…
