Manchester United vs Fulham Prediction, betting tips & odds

The Red Devils are the FA Cup defending champions.

Manchester United are all set to host Fulham in the FA Cup 2024-25 fifth-round match. Ruben Amorim’s men defeated Leicester City in their last cup fixture. The Red Devils are slowly getting back into their form. The Cottagers were the better side against Wigan Athletic in their fourth-round FA Cup fixture.

Manchester United will be at home and confident as they are coming in after winning their Premier League fixture against Ipswich Town. It was a high-voltage fixture and the Red Devils ended up securing those three points. The oldest club Cup competition will see a battle between Fulham and the Red Devils where the better will proceed.

Fulham have come up with some average performances this season. The Cottagers have already lost to Man United once this season. This will be a big challenge for Fulham away from home. However, their Premier League run has been better than the Red Devils. The consistent performance might help Fulham prevail.
