The match between Fulham and Man Utd at Craven Cottage Stadium at 2am on January 27 is the latest match of round 23 of the Premier League. In the crisis period of the "Red Devils", it is not surprising that this team loses points away from home.
Fulham vs Man Utd Prediction
Fulham are 10th in the table with 33 points. They are always a tough opponent to beat. Only 2 teams have lost less than Fulham (5 games) in the first 22 rounds. Those are the 2 top teams Liverpool (1 game) and Arsenal (2 games).
Fulham have the third-lowest expected goals conceded – a measure of the likelihood of conceding goals – in the Premier League, behind only the two title contenders. However, their defensive form has been inconsistent.
In their last 5 matches, Fulham have conceded 8 goals and kept just 1 clean sheet. They conceded 2 goals/match in 2 consecutive home matches before meeting Man Utd.
However, all the opponents above them present big challenges for the "Red Devils". Man Utd's form has not improved significantly in recent matches.
Man Utd failed to improve their performance after recruiting coach Ruben Amorim.
In the last 6 rounds of the Premier League, Man Utd has only won 1 and lost 4. Away from home, the "Red Devils" have only won 2 matches since the beginning of the season.
Coach Ruben Amorim's team still shows a familiar face in every match. They are ineffective in actively pressing and often miss opportunities.
Man Utd's attack relies heavily on individual moments or mistakes from opponents. Meanwhile, the team's defense is still full of loopholes and mistakes.
Expected lineup
Man Utd received bad news about their squad after the midweek win over Rangers. Both Matthijs de Ligt and Leny Yoro left the field early, uncertain to recover in time to play.
Mason Mount, Jonny Evans and Luke Shaw are still out. Victor Lindelof has been involved in training but the centre-back's fitness and form remain questionable after a long lay-off.
Fulham's squad is good enough at the moment. The home team is only missing Kenny Tete and Reiss Nelson to welcome Man Utd. Both of these players are not difficult to replace in the Fulham squad.
Fulham: Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Berge, Lukic; Wilson, Smith Rowe, Traore; Jimenez
Manchester United: Onana; Mazraoui, Maguire, Martinez; Diallo, Ugarte, Mainoo, Dalot; Fernandes, Garnacho; Hojlund.
Fulham vs Man Utd Prediction
According to the prediction of the supercomputer Opta, the winning rate of Man Utd in this match is less than 30%, while the chance of winning of Fulham is up to 44%. However, the "Red Devils" fans still have reason to hope for the team's ability to gain points.
Fulham are hard to beat but they are also one of the two teams with the most draws in the Premier League. In recent confrontations, Fulham have always caused difficulties for Man Utd but the "Red Devils" have only lost once in the last 10 matches against this opponent.
Score prediction: Fulham 2-2 Man Utd.
