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.
