The Premier League returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Fulham lock horns with Ruben Amorim's Manchester United side in an important clash at Craven Cottage on Sunday. Both teams have good players in their ranks and will want to win this game.
Fulham vs Manchester United Preview
Manchester United are currently in 15th place in the Premier League standings and have struggled to make an impact over the past year. The Red Devils slumped to a narrow 1-0 defeat at the hands of Arsenal in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
Fulham, on the other hand, are in ninth place in the league table at the moment and have been inconsistent so far this season. The home side played out a 1-1 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
Fulham vs Manchester United Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Manchester United have a good historical record against Fulham and have won 58 out of the 94 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Fulham's 16 victories.
Fulham have won only one of their last 19 matches against Manchester United in the Premier League, with their only such victory coming by a 2-1 margin away from home in February last year.
Manchester United have won each of their last eight matches away from home against Fulham in the Premier League and have never won nine such games against them in the history of the competition.
Manchester United have won only three of their last 23 matches away from home against teams from London in the Premier League, with each of these victories during this period coming against Fulham.
Fulham vs Manchester United Prediction
Manchester United have a good squad at their disposal but have not made an impressive start to their league campaign. The likes of Bruno Fernandes and Benjamin Sesko can be lethal on their day and will need to be at their best this weekend.
Fulham can pull off an upset on their day but have a poor recent record in this fixture. Manchester United are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.
Prediction: Fulham 1-2 Manchester United

Aditya is a European and international football writer at Sportskeeda, covering previews, news, post-match articles and live blogs for 5 years. During his time here, he has had the privilege of covering a press meeting during the collaboration between his favorite club Bengaluru FC and Sevilla, where he got a chance to interact with Sevilla president Jose Castro and explore the grassroots development in his city.
Aditya started following the sport after being dazzled by Ronaldinho’s silky feet at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He is a Barcelona fan and unsurprisingly, his favorite manager and players are Pep Guardiola and Andres Iniesta respectively. He admires the latter for his superhuman talent and his off-pitch demeanor, and his winning goal in Spain’s 2010 World Cup final win over the Netherlands left a lasting impact on Aditya.
The match-preview specialist believes that his ongoing five-year stint at Sportskeeda has given him the ability to identify the distinct line between emotional and fact-based articles, which separates him from other journalists. For him, fact-checking is the most integral part of his writing process and he only relies on authentic platforms for data.
