Manchester United Football Club is an English association football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, that competes in the Premier League. Founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, the club changed its name to Manchester United in 1902. During the 1889–90 season, Manchester United joined the Football Alliance. The team was elected to The Football League in 1892, where the club remained until 1992, when the League's First Division was replaced as the top level of English football by the Premier League.[1]

Manchester United's first team has competed in a number of nationally contested leagues, and its record against each club faced in these competitions is listed below. The team that Manchester United has met most in league competition is Arsenal, against whom they have contested 208 league matches (as of the end of the 2022–23 season).[2] Arsenal have also defeated Manchester United in league competition on 74 occasions,[3] which represents the most Manchester United have lost against any club. Manchester United have won 89 of their league matches against Aston Villa, the most Manchester United have won against any club.[4] Manchester United have drawn more matches with Chelsea than with any other club; out of the 162 league matches between the two teams, 53 have finished without a winner.[5][6]
