Team News

Man Utd
Fulham
  • Manchester United could head into the new Premier League season with as many as six players absent.
  • The Red Devils will be boosted by the additions of Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich, but it would be a surprise to see the duo thrown straight into the action here.
  • Fulham should be free of any injury concerns for Friday's curtain-raising clash.
  • Emile Smith Rowe looks set to start, having signed from Arsenal this summer.

Prediction

  • After a disappointing campaign in which they finished eighth last season, Erik ten Hag's Manchester United will be hoping to be back in contention for a Champions League place this time around.
  • The Red Devils officially got their season underway in last weekend's Community Shield clash with rivals Manchester City, losing out on penalties.
  • Fulham enjoyed another steady season with Marco Silva at the helm, finishing 13th last term.
  • The Whites have added Emile Smith Rowe, Ryan Sessegnon and Jorge Cuenca to their squad over the summer, and should put up a strong account of themselves here.

  • Welcome back PL, welcome back Ten Hag's useless tactics. This is second time in a row now that he took Diallo off instead of Rashford, starting without a natural striker was a horrible idea. Mount is nowhere near the kid we saw 3 years ago, hopefully the new signings will settle in quickly like Zirkzee.

  • Rashford 2nd worst on the pitch, loan him to conference

  • Bruno F. To Score/Assist Anytime -105

  • Summer signings Matthijs de Ligt and Joshua Zirkzee are on the Manchester United bench.

  • @Marbella How about Sancho ?

  • MAN UTD Onana; Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Mazraoui; Casemiro, Mainoo; Diallo, Fernandes, Mount; Rashford.

  • FULHAM Leno; Tete, Diop, Bassey, Robinson; Lukic, Adama; Iwobi, Pereira, Smith Rowe; Muniz.

  • 1X

  • will be a big progress if Utd manage a convincing victory and CS. nothing short of that is progress. nothing matters more than an all important clean sheet to begin the season especially at Old Trafford.

  • I hope Joshua Zirkzee plays some part in the game.His physical presence at 6foot 4 inches tall and well built will cause EPL teams problems.

  • @Marbella Looks a great player

  • ETH said Rashford has worked well pre-season and is 'back to his best'.

  • @Marbella lol

  • United 2-0 Rashy to score 1 goal

  • Fulham could drop points here.. maybe not all 3..

  • Fulham win

  • Fulham Won only 4 EPL away matches last season.

  • @Marbella man utd is one of them and the first round against everton is the second one but man utd will win it tonight

  • 4-0 united de ligt to score a header and garnacho to score

  • MU 2-0
