Rangers will be eager after Ruben Amorim’s fallout at Man United.

Philippe Clement has a great chance to add to Ruben Amorim’s troubles when Rangers take on Manchester United in the Europa League.

Rangers have a prime opportunity to secure a spot in the Europa League knockout rounds with a victory at Old Trafford on Thursday (23 January), as pressure mounts on Ruben Amorim in Manchester.

However, the match’s outcome might be influenced even before kickoff, following reports that the Portuguese manager “smashed the dressing room TV” in frustration after United’s 3-1 Premier League defeat to Brighton (Daily Mail, 21 January).

Rangers Hold the Psychological Advantage Over Manchester United

While Philippe Clement is familiar with the intense expectations at Ibrox, for once, his own uncertain future won’t be the main talking point heading into Old Trafford.

According to widespread UK media reports, including the Daily Mail, Amorim has described his squad as “the worst in Manchester United history.”

With United in turmoil, Amorim’s struggles come at an ideal moment for Clement.

Rangers previously showcased their strength against Premier League opposition, dominating Tottenham at Ibrox on 12 December. Despite Spurs salvaging a draw through Dejan Kulusevski’s late equalizer, Ange Postecoglou’s side was “lucky” to escape with a point.

Now, as Amorim faces a difficult period just two months into his tenure at Old Trafford, Clement has the chance to pile on the misery when the two sides clash on Thursday.
