Man United Safe from Relegation Worries, Says Opta
Despite a disappointing season, Manchester United fans can breathe a sigh of relief—relegation to the Championship is highly unlikely. According to analytics platform Opta, the probability of United being demoted stands at a mere 0.11%.
After 19 rounds of Premier League action, United sits in a frustrating 14th place with just 22 points, seven points clear of the relegation zone. While their position is far below expectations, the numbers suggest they are not in genuine danger of dropping out of the top flight.

Improvement may not come this Sunday when United faces league leaders Liverpool at Anfield. However, with fixtures against less daunting opposition ahead, manager Ruben Amorim will hope to guide the Red Devils to a better standing in the second half of the season.
For now, while the pressure remains on, relegation fears can be firmly set aside.
