Fulham vs Man Utd preview

It’s been just over 160 days since Manchester United kick-started the 2024-25 campaign with a 1-0 win over Fulham at Old Trafford.

Joshua Zirkzee became an instant hero with his 87th-minute winner assisted by Alejandro Garnacho, while Marcus Rashford started in a team led by manager Erik ten Hag.

Things have changed a bit since then.

Manchester United find themselves anchored in 13th position in the Premier League table with just seven victories from 22 matches, along with a -5 goal difference.

They are closer to the relegation places than Champions League qualification with a manager who described his side as ‘maybe, the worst-ever’ in the club’s history.

Ruben Amorim did enjoy a brief respite from the criticism following Thursday’s 2-1 victory over Rangers in the Europa League, although it did take a stoppage-time winner from Bruno Fernandes to spare their blushes.

But they’ll need to translate those wins to the Premier League, where they’ve lost six of their last nine matches.

That isn’t going to be easy against a Fulham side sitting in 10th position and having scored exactly two goals in each of their last five Premier League matches.

Marco Silva’s side have only been beaten five times this season and once in their last 11 games in all competitions, beating the likes of Chelsea, Brighton, Newcastle and Nottingham Forest along the way.

That said, their record against United isn’t particularly positive.

Fulham have won just one of their last 18 Premier League games against Manchester United, while the visitors are unbeaten in eight Premier League visits to Craven Cottage, winning the last seven in a row.

Magnet

Sasa Lukic has been booked nine times in 17 games in the Premier League this season, only two Fulham players have ever received 10+ yellows in a single season.

Only five top-flight players have committed more than his 39 fouls this campaign while nobody has received more bookings, two of which were collected in his last two outings against West Ham and Leicester.

Wilson!

Manchester United have been undone over the last couple of weeks against Southampton and Brighton with their centre forwards dropping deep and wingers bombing on, resulting in goals for Yankuba Minteh and Kaoru Mitoma last weekend.

It could be a similar story on Sunday with Fulham perhaps one of the more flexible sides in the division, and that could see Harry Wilson benefit.

He’s created 14 chances in the Premier League for Fulham in 2025, the most of any player. He’s also created 3+ chances in all three of his games this year, as many times as he had done so in his first 110 appearances between 2019 and 2024. He leads Fulham for non-penalty xG over the last six games, and has struck 18 efforts at goal – two less than talisman Raul Jimenez.
