Fulham FC are going to lock horns with Manchester United for their fifth matchweek fixture of the English Premier League 2026-27 season. Craven Cottage will witness this intense clash.
The Alvaro Arbeloa-led side have not enjoyed a good time in the English top division so far. In their first four matches, they have lost three and one of the fixtures ended in a draw. Fulham FC are coming in after facing a 3-2 win against West Ham United in the Carabao Cup.
They will now be looking to extend their winning run. The Cottagers at home will enjoy a fair share of the advantage. They must control the game from the start, or things could get out of hand.
Manchester United have now faced consecutive defeats in their last two matches. First, they lost to Man City in the Premier League. Then they were knocked out of the EFL Cup, following their 2-3 loss against Brighton & Hove Albion.
Despite having a two-goal lead, Michael Carrick’s men failed to contain the Carabao Cup opponents. They will be away from home for their upcoming contest. They are likely to be under pressure.
