Red Devils' Lucky Charm

Chris Smalling scored his 18th goal in the red of Manchester United on Saturday in a 1-2 win against Watford - maintaining his unique record of the Reds always winning when he scores. 

Since joining the club back in 2010/11, the centre-back has proved something of a lucky charm - the Red Devils winning in all competitions whenever the former Fulham man has scored.

For the record, Smalling's 18 goals have come in 17 matches - two of them matchwinners. His goals have been distributed as follows: Premier League (x12), Champions League (x2), FA Cup (x2), League Cup (x1) and Community Shield (x1).

After their first Champions League group match of 2018/19 against Young Boys, United will face Wolverhampton at Old Trafford - last season's Championship winners likely to provide stiff opposition after a strong start to the season.
