Manchester United continued their impressive form at Old Trafford by securing a 3-2 win against Nottingham Forest in a thrilling Premier League clash on Sunday. The victory further solidified their remarkable unbeaten streak on home turf when leading at halftime.
According to OptaJoe, United have now gone 400 consecutive home league matches without defeat after taking a lead into the break, a streak dating back to August 1984. That run includes 365 wins and 35 draws, highlighting their dominance in such situations.
Goals from Luke Shaw, Matheus Cunha, and Bryan Mbeumo propelled the Red Devils to victory, overcoming a determined Forest side at the Theatre of Dreams. The trio combined effectively to ensure the hosts secured all three points.
With this result, Manchester United climbed to third place in the Premier League standings, amassing 68 points from 37 games. They have already booked their spot in next season’s Champions League, a significant achievement after a disappointing 2024/25 campaign that saw them finish in the bottom half of the table.
Michael Carrick’s side now turn their attention to their final league fixture of the season, an away trip to Brighton at the Amex Stadium on Sunday, May 24. The match will serve as preparation for their European campaign next term.
