Having lost the Community Shield to Manchester City, United enters into the tie hoping that they can improve on their eighth-placed finish last season. They have been busy roping in the Bayern Munich duo of Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui in the transfer market. The pressure is now on manager Erik ten Hag to deliver after being back in the window.
Fulham may have lost star midfielder Joao Palhinha to Bayern Munich but have added Emile Smith Rowe as they look to, at the very least, secure a third consecutive mid-table finish. Smith Rowe scored in the Cottagers’ final friendly of pre-season and will be expected to be a key member of the team this season after his record-breaking move from Arsenal.
H2H / Stats
United have won four and lost one of their last five games against Fulham, but the Cottagers claimed all three points when the pair last locked horns in February.
Manchester United wins: 56
Fulham wins: 15
Draws: 20
Team News
For United, new signing Leny Yoro is injured and could be out until November but fellow new arrival Joshua Zirkzee could feature. Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof are both doubts while de Ligt and Mazraoui could make their debuts. Luke Shaw will miss the start of the season due to an injury sustained during pre-season.
Fulham have a fully-fit squad heading into this game. The final friendly at Hoffenheim saw Marco Silva deploy Rodrigo Muniz up front in a 4-3-3 formation, with Smith Rowe alongside Andreas Pereira and Sasa Lukic in midfield. Serbia international Lukic appears to be the primary replacement for departed anchorman Palhinha. New signing Jorge Cuenca is an option in the centre of defence and Ryan Sessegnon is fit for his second Cottagers debut, likely off the bench.
Probable Line-Up
Man United XI: Onana (GK), Evans, Maguire, Dalot, Martínez, Casemiro, Fernandes, Mount, Mainoo, Rashford, Diallo
Fulham XI: Leno (GK), Tete, Diop, Bassey, Robinson, Lukić, Andreas, Smith Rowe, Adama, Muniz, Iwobi
Verdict
The season’s first games are always hard to predict as most teams are still trying to incorporate new faces into their systems. United arrive into this game as the favourites after pushing Man City in the Shield and should record a narrow win.

Over 2.5 Goals
Reason: Manchester United have scored at least two goals in three of their last five games against Fulham and they look like a team with goals in their side.
BTTS
Reason: United have always looked vulnerable at the back and continued with the same habit when they allowed a City comeback last week in the Shield. Their defence is yet sorted and Fulham should nick a goal in this tie.
