Fulham vs Manchester United: Predicted starting lineups, team news, predictions
Fulham will attempt to shock Manchester United when both sides lock horns at the Craven Cottage on matchday 16 of the Premier League and below are our predicted starting lineups, predictions and team news.
The hosts lost 2-1 to ten men Manchester City last weekend in the league after Erling Haaland scored from the penalty spot in the last minute of the game.
Fulham will want to bounce back to winning ways this weekend but to do that against a Manchester United side that lost 3-1 at Aston Villa on Sunday will require 100% concentration until the last minute of the game.
United won Villa 4-2 on Thursday night in the Carabao Cup third round to prove that the defeat at Villa Park over the weekend was nothing short of a blip.

The Cottagers will be without a number of first-team players due to injury issues and suspensions. Manor Solomon, Neeskens Kebano and Aleksandar Mitrovic have been ruled out with injuries.

Predictions for Fulham vs Manchester United
Manchester United to win
The Red Devils are keen on bouncing back to winning ways in the Premier League in a bid to keep their top-four push alive. A win over Fulham will do just that, plus United have only lost one league game since their 6-3 defeat to Man City in October.
Over 2.5 goals
Both sides are likely to get on the scoreboard and with Manchester United the favourites, the total goals are likely to be over 2.5. United’s last two games ended with over 2.5 goals. Five of Fulham’s last six games ended with over 2.5 goals.
