Manchester United host Fulham in their final Premier League fixture of the season which both teams looking to end their campaign on a high note. There is little at stake here but with the Red Devils often impressive at home, they should have the upper hand.
Manchester United are coming off a 4-1 victory over Chelsea in a rescheduled Premier League fixture on Thursday. They proved too much for the struggling Blues and raced to a four-goal lead before letting in a consolation one minute from time.
That was a significant result for Manchester United as it locked in a top four finish and a place in next season’s Champions League. It was also the third straight win for Erik Ten Hag’s men, who have found some consistency in the final weeks of the campaign.
Old Trafford has been a fortress for Manchester United throughout the season and they have suffered just one Premier League defeat at home this term. They head into this weekend’s finale off the back of five straight home wins.
Fulham were held to a 2-2 draw by Crystal Palace in their previous Premier League fixture. They fought back from a goal down to lead thanks to a brace from Aleksandar Mitrovic but conceded a late equaliser.
Despite failing to hold on for the win, Fulham will be pleased with their showings in the final weeks of the season as they have claimed two wins and a draw in their last three matches. However, they have little to play for on Sunday as they cannot finish higher or lower than their correct position of 10th.
A slight concern for Fulham heading to Old Trafford is that they have found things difficult on their recent travels. Marco Silva’s men have won just two of their last seven away matches across all competitions, losing the remaining five.
