Manchester United face a second away game in a row as we travel to Craven Cottage to take on Fulham in the weekend’s early kick-off in the Premier League
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men are hoping to build on our 1-0 win against Leicester City last out time out, when Marcus Rashford’s strike after nine minutes saw us take all three points against the Foxes.
That victory was our fourth Premier League away win in succession and a fifth in all competitions since Ole took caretaker charge of the team.
The Reds ran out 4-1 winners in December’s clash with the Cottagers and three points against Claudio Ranieri’s side this time around would, at least temporarily, lift us into the top four.
Team News :
FULHAM:
Claudio Ranieri’s side, who are second from bottom in the Premier League, will have Cyrus Christie and Andre Schurrle available for Saturday’s game. Full-back Christie was withdrawn in the second half of last weekend’s 2-0 defeat at Crystal Palace, while former Chelsea forward Schurrle missed out altogether through injury. Of course, defender Tim Fosu-Mensah is ineligible to play against his parent club, as he is on loan from the Reds. Goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli and centre-back Alfie Mawson are long-term absentees. Ranieri also told the media on Thursday that January signings Lazar Markovic and Havard Nordtveit won’t be fit enough to start but could be involved after training this week.
MAN-UTD :
Solskjaer told the media on Friday that Marcos Rojo has trained all week, but Antonio Valencia and Matteo Darmian will be out for a couple of weeks with what Ole described as “niggles”. With a busy schedule coming up, the caretaker manager could be tempted to rotate his squad on Saturday, especially given the huge clash against Paris Saint-Germain next week. United also face Chelsea and Liverpool later this month before the return leg against PSG at the start of March.
Update :
Fulham 0 vs 3 Manchester United
Goal Scorer : Paul Pogba 14,65 ; Anthony Martial 23
