Under fire Manchester United are looking for a break when they visit Fulham in the Premier League on Sunday night.
Playing at Lesser-Seen 19:00 GMT kick off the reception, the Red Devils look for redemption after last weekend miserable defeat at home to Brighton & Hove Albion. A woeful defensive display proceeded the Seagulls’ victory and saw the pressure mount on Ruben Amorim as United slumped to 13th.
Thursday night proved to be another slog for the 13-time Premier League champions as they needed a 92nd-minute winner from skipper Bruno Fernandes in Beat Rangers 2-1 in the Europa Leagueand they may be relieved to be playing away from the justifiably critical Old Trafford faithful this weekend.
Fulham It won’t prove that they wouldn’t drop seven points clear of United in the Premier League table having suffered just one defeat in their previous ten games in the competition. That said, they have only won three of those battles, including their recent trip to the competition city of Leicester.

Fulham only have the two absentees for the visit of Man Utd, with loanee Reiss Nelson missing on the deadline and Kenny Tete also unavailable at Right-Back. Otherwise, Marco Silva has a fully fit squad for Sunday.
Andreas Pereira will face his former employers for the fifth time, having only beaten them once before. Former Liverpool winger Harry Wilson will look to punish his former foes and has been in promising form with two goals and an assist in his last five outings.
Fulham predicted line-up against Man UTD (4-2-3-1): Leno? Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson. Lukic, Berge. Wilson, Smith Rowe, Iwobi. Jimenez.
Man they await fitness updates on a trio of defenders. Noussair Mazraoui missed Thursday’s win with a minor knock and will be assessed ahead of Sunday’s clash, while Matthijs de Ligt and Leny Yoro are both doubts after midweek soreness according to Amorim.
Luke Shaw and Jonny Evans are also absent in defence, but Victor Lindelof is now back in training. Mason Mount is unavailable on Sunday as he continues his recovery from a muscle injury.
UTD man predicted line-up against Fulham (3-4-2-1): Onana? Mazraoui, Maguire, Martines. Amad, Ugart, Maino, Dalot. Garnacho, Fernandes. Syrkzee.
Fulham have won just once against Man Utd in their last 20 meetings – that coming at Old Trafford last season – and have not been beaten at Craven Cottage since December 2009. They have a great chance to change that on Sunday against a away -Sorts and lower performance.
They are prone to injury and generally disorganized defensive issues and have scored two or more in their last six games in all competitions.
United’s unpredictability makes it difficult to know what we will see from Amorim’s side, but they have scored goals in recent games despite their poor form. Amad Diallo and Fernandes could be their saviors again this weekend.
Prediction: Fulham 2-2 Man Utd
