The long wait is finally over as Ruben Amorim prepares to make his Manchester United bow today against Ipswich Town.
The Sporting Lisbon boss was announced as manager at the start of this month but waited until the international break before taking the reins.
Results under interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy proved their expensive squad had underachieved in Erik ten Hag's reign, with three wins and a draw under the former United striker.
The bookies reckon Amorim will kick off with a victory at Portman Road but it won't be a gimme against an Ipswich side who won away at Tottenham in their last outing.

Ipswich Town vs Manchester United top betting tips
Betano make Manchester United their 4/7 favourites but if you add on over 2.5 goals then it boosts the odds to 28/25 in a bet builder.
Going for goals certainly looks like a smart move based on results for Amorim's Sporting Lisbon side. BTTS and over 3.5 goals landed in the last four games of his reign in Portugal, a run that included a memorable 4-1 victory over Manchester City in the Champions League.
That result has got United fans excited but Sporting could easily have been 3-0 down before they blew Pep Guardiola's side away. That's why BTTS is just 4/7 today at Betano but adding on over 2.5 goals boosts the price to 17/20.
Some player bets catch the eye and Ipswich striker Liam Delap looks good value at 5/4 for a shot on target with Bet365, given he has scored six times in his last nine games. Skipper Sam Morsy also looks good at 15/8 with the same firm to pick up his fifth card this term.
Southampton vs Liverpool top betting tips
The international break came at a bad time for Liverpool as they were romping clear at the top of the Premier League with their rivals slipping up left, right and centre.
Arne Slot's side return with a trip to Southampton and Betano make them 1/4 hot favourites for a win against the team propping up the table.
Saints boss Russell Martin would have been dreading a phone call from the board during the break after losing to drop rivals Wolves in a game dubbed as ‘El Sackico'.
But he remains at the helm and shocking the league leaders would be the perfect answer to his critics. It's hard to see it happening though with Southampton so shot-shy in attack and a Liverpool win to nil appeals at 13/10 with Betano.
Curtis Jones has impressed in midfield for the Reds of late and the England new boy looks good at 6/4 with Bet365 to either score or assist today.
Swansea City vs Leeds United top betting tips
Leeds United remain odds-on favourites for the EFL Championship title but Daniel Farke's side face another test of mettle on the road in Swansea today.
An eight-game unbeaten run ground to a halt on their last away day as Leeds lost to Millwall but they bounced back with a home win over QPR.
Swansea have lost just once at home in the league all season so this could be a tight one and the half-time draw appeals at 11/10.
We've seen a lot of corners in Swansea's home games, with 11 or more in their last four, so over 11.5 flag kicks could be worth a punt at 13/10 with Betano.
Leeds haven't been picking up a lot of cards this season so it could pay to back Swansea for most booking points at 13/10 with Betfred.
