Fulham vs Manchester Utd Prediction & Betting tips
Manchester United will hardly complain about the goalless draw at arch rivals from Liverpool. With that, the Red Devils have successfully defended the championship lead in the Premier League. During the week, due to the busy schedule, the island continues, where Manchester United will be on an away trip to London.
Opponent on the 18th matchday of the Premier League is Fulham, who are currently in 18th place in the table with twelve points. After five straight draws, the West Londoners lost to the Blues in the latest city derby. This missed the great opportunity to minimize the gap to the safe shore.
As the odds comparison of the betting base shows, Fulham is the outsider against Manchester United according to odds. The Cottagers have only won one win in their nine home games of the current season, but have already struck a considerable draw against Liverpool, ManUtd’s greatest opponent.
Fulham :
Fulham are currently lacking the sense of achievement. The Cottagers in the English House of Lords have not won a single match since November 2020. Before the recent home defeat against Chelsea, the West Londoners had five draws in a row, including dividing points against title contenders such as Tottenham and Liverpool.
However, there can be no talk of momentum in the meantime. The deficit on a non-relegation place remained unchanged, currently separating Fulham from the table-17. from Burnley four points.
If you consider how weak Fulham presented themselves in the nine home games of the current season, it cannot be ruled out that the table situation will remain unchanged in the English week. So far there has only been one home win for the team of head coach Scott Parker at Craven Cottage.
More than two months have passed since the last home win. In the last five games Fulham have drawn three and lost two, including the most recent home defeat against Chelsea. Even if the defense made a solid impression recently, the Cottagers’ offensive game could be improved.
With 14 goals, the Parker-Elf is one of the worst attacking teams in the Premier League. Only league competitors like Sheffield United (10 goals) and Burnley (9) undercut that bad offensive value.
The last failure of Alexander Mitrovic, who had to pause two games in the Premier League after a muscle strain, was all the more serious. On Wednesday evening, the Serbian goal getter is back in the squad and is expected to start again.
Five players are still on the list of suspended and injured players. Including Antonee Robinson, who was sent off at the London derby last weekend.
Manchester United :
Manchester United want to defend their lead in the Premier League. Although a title competitor was kept at a distance with the most recent away draw at Anfield Road, title competitors such as the city rivals and Leicester City have shortened the gap to the Red Devils.
Manchester United will have to win the away game at Fulham on Wednesday evening to defend their pole position on their own for the time being. City rivals and title rivals Manchester City currently have one game less with 35 points and, provided the catch-up game is won, they can overtake the Red Devils.
In foreign countries there has been a record of 7-2-0 in the nine away games of the Premier League season 2020/21 so far, both away draws were booked against direct title rivals.
Statistically speaking, Manchester United currently has one of the best offensives in the league anyway. Currently, the league leader’s (34) strong goal scoring is only surpassed by Liverpool (37). It is quite possible that MUFC will also flex its muscles on the offensive on Wednesday evening.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will probably only have to do without Rojo, Williams and Jones in West London due to injuries. The Red Devils currently have no further failures to complain about.
