Burnley vs Manchester United: Premier League preview
Despite their seemingly endemic failings and Amorim's inability to overcome them, the season is far from a lost cause for the Red Devils.
United started the week in sixth place in the Premier League table, three points behind Liverpool in third but also three points above Everton in 12th.
With former midfielder Darren Fletcher installed as caretaker manager, United's first post-Amorim job before mending any bridges they might look to repair with players in exile, for example is to hold their ground in the league.
They would have preferred to play their first and possibly only game under Fletcher at Old Trafford but Burnley are proving a soft enough landing as away trips go.
Tickets
Parker is another manager in a tricky spot. Since the start of November, Burnley have lost nine of their 11 matches in the Premier League, drawing the other two.
After a slow but steady start, the Clarets are in a dire state. Nottingham Forest are nine points above them in 17th place and Burnley have only won 12 points all season.
The previous meeting between these two was a meagre false dawn for Amorim. Three days after their Carabao Cup humiliation at Grimsby Town, United overcame two sloppy Burnley goals to ensure their dominance led to three points at Old Trafford.
That Bruno Fernandes penalty to win the game seven minutes into stoppage time feels like a very long time ago.
