The last time Manchester United lost back-to-back league games was in the first two matches of the season after an opening defeat to Brighton.
On Thursday, the Reds went down to a 99th-minute penalty from Alexis Mac Allister but will be hopeful of not repeating August’s feat by claiming a win over a stumbling West Ham on Sunday.
