Manchester United

Every Manchester United match this season, home and away — each one links to hotels near the ground it’s played at, so away weekends are as easy to book as home ones.

Home ground: Old Trafford, Manchester

Good to know: Premier League kick-off dates and times move for TV broadcast picks all season — often on a few weeks’ notice. If your stay is built around the match, choose a free-cancellation rate so your booking can move with it.

History

Manchester United began in 1878 as Newton Heath LYR, a team formed by railway workers at the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway's Newton Heath depot, and only became Manchester United, in red, in 1902 — the change behind today's Red Devils nickname. The club's history holds both tragedy and triumph: eight players died in the 1958 Munich air disaster, and manager Matt Busby, badly injured himself, rebuilt the team into European champions a decade later, in 1968. United have since added two more European Cups, under Alex Ferguson in 1999 and 2008, and hold the English record of 20 league titles, a mark shared with Liverpool.
