The Special One, 55, has endured a rocky 2018-19 season so far – leading his side to just eighth in the Premier League after eight matches.
Mourinho is well in the lead in the Prem sack race… and the numbers from bettingexpert suggest United would be wise to give him the boot.
Historically, clubs who have waved goodbye to Mourinho have seen a win-rate boost of nine per cent.
This term alone, United have seen a 20.6 per cent drop in win-rate, while averaging 0.6 points per game fewer compared to last season.
The Red Devils have lost 15 per cent more games – and sit six places further down the league table.
How teams fare after sacking Mourinho
Win rate: +9 per cent
Loss rate: -17 per cent
Goals per game: +0.6
Points per game: +0.4
During two stints at Chelsea and one at Real Madrid, Mourinho's sacking came on the back of worryingly similar stats.
In every single instance, the win rate drops, the loss rate goes up and the points per game dip – leading to his ultimate demise.
At the Blues, Mourinho was sacked before the turn of the year of that season, while at Los Blancos he faced the axe the following summer.
So what lies in store for the Special One this season? If results stay the same, his job at United is almost certainly on the line.
