Fulham vs Manchester United Preview
Fulham left it very late to salvage a point in their opening fixture against Brighton, with Rodrigo Muniz netting a 97th-minute equaliser at the Amex.
As for United, Ruben Amorim’s men played very well in their Matchday 1 clash against Arsenal, but ultimately lost 1-0 at Old Trafford courtesy of Riccardo Calafiori’s first-half header.
But if the Red Devils perform to a similar standard at Craven Cottage, the chances of achieving victory look pretty good.
New signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo each gave Arsenal’s defence a torrid time, while Matthijs de Ligt was hugely impressive at the back.
And we could even see Benjamin Sesko handed a first United start in this fixture after his cameo from the bench last weekend.
The Red Devils’ new-look front three could pose serious problems to Fulham’s back-line, although the hosts have enough weapons to trouble the visiting side.
Marco Silva has not been able to bring in many new players during the summer window thus far, but can still rely on tried-and-tested stars like Harry Wilson, Alex Iwobi and Raul Jimenez, with Muniz, Emile Smith Rowe and Adama Traore representing fantastic game-changing options.
However, while Fulham should be fairly positive ahead of kick-off, especially after the late heroics vs Brighton, there is no hiding from their shocking Premier League record vs United.
After losing both fixtures last season by a 1-0 scoreline, the Cottagers have claimed just one top-flight win over the Red Devils since December 2009.
That sole victory came at Old Trafford in February 2024, which means it has been nearly 16 years since Fulham beat United at Craven Cottage.
Can Silva’s side break the curse tomorrow?
Fulham vs Manchester United Odds

Fulham vs Manchester United Betting Tips
Player to score or assist – Matheus Cunha @ 1.95
Cunha looked sharp against Arsenal and was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet, with an inspired David Raya thwarting him on numerous occasions. But a record of 15 goals and six assists in the Premier League for Wolves last season suggests it won’t be long until he is racking up the numbers in a United jersey. In his four previous appearances vs Fulham, Cunha scored three goals and assisted another, so he certainly enjoys playing against the West Londoners!
Matheus Cunha to have over 1.5 shots on target @ 2.63
Another Cunha-related bet, with this one at slightly higher odds. The Brazil international registered three shots on target against the Gunners after recording 44 during the 2024-25 campaign – at a seasonal average of one every 59 minutes. So this selection potentially represents fantastic value, all without adding too much extra risk.
Sasa Lukic to commit over 2.5 fouls @ 2.10
In case you were unaware, Lukic is very prone to a foul. He committed 66 of them last season in just 30 appearances, tallying 12 yellow cards in the process. Up against the likes of Bruno Fernandes and potentially Mason Mount in the middle of the park, Lukic may once again be the subject of the referee’s gaze.
