Manchester United vs Fulham Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Steve Ashfield in FA Cup Predictions
FA Cup holders Manchester United are home to Fulham in the FA Cup fifth round. This is the last 16 of this year's competition with the Reds continuing their attempt to be the first side to retain the trophy since Arsenal in 2015. Here's our match prediction.
United have reached the final for the past two seasons and only one since 2014 have they failed to reach at least the sixth round. With this Manchester United squad you can never quite be sure what they might do next.
Fulham were the losing finalists 50 years ago but lost to West Ham 2-0. The Cottagers last reached the sixth round in 2023 with their best this century being a semi-final in 2002. They are ninth in the Premier League and that's five places and nine points above their opponents. Fulham had a good away win in midweek and will hope to continue that form at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Manchester United - Fulham: Form Analysis
Manchester United beat Ipswich Town in midweek but it was another struggle for the Red Devils. Whiile their Premier League form is inconsistent, United have been getting some good results in cup competitions this season.
They have beaten Arsenal on penalties and Leicester City to reach the fifth round. Both teams scored in each of those FA Cup ties. Five of the last six Manchester United home games have seen both teams get on the scoresheet.
Fulham can't stop scoring in away games.
Fulham still have a good chance of European football next season and it could even be in the Champions League. These two clubs met in the FA Cup two years ago and both teams scored in that match. Six of the last nine games between United and Fulham have seen both teams score a goal.
That stat has come up in seven of Fulham's last eight away games. The Londoners have scored exactly twice in all but one of their last nine away games. Watford and Wigan have been beaten in this season's FA Cup, both teams scoring in each game.

Manchester United & Fulham Squad Analysis
Patrick Dorgu was sent off against Ipswich and this wil be the first of a three-match domestic suspension. He joins a growing list of United players who are either injured or suspended. That includes several long-term absentees so they won't have too much chance of rotating their squad.
It'll be more of a case of fielding a side that can be competitive and not too inexperienced. The bench is again likely to be dominated by youngsters which could make life difficult for United if it's not going well in the second half. Noussair Mazraoui is likely to be the replacement for Dorgu.
Garnacho may play but he's on the naughty step.
Alejandro Garnacho is expected to be fit for this game against Fulham. He'll be buying his teammates dinner as a punishment for his behaviour when subbed against Ipswich. They'd probably prefer it if he could rediscover his scoring touch and help them into the sixth round.
Sasa Lukic is suspended for Premier League games but the ban doesn't apply to the FA Cup. He's likely to feature in midfield for Fulham at Old Trafford. That will help them in midfield as Emile Smith-Rowe is very doubtful for this game.
Muniz has scored three goals in his last two away games and may relish playing against United's mistake-prone defence.

Our Manchester United vs Fulham Prediction
United recently won 1-0 at Fulham in the Premier League. That was one of their rare clean sheets but only one has been kept in their six games since then. Midweek saw the Red Devils struggle to get a 3-2 home win over Ipswich with some pretty appalling defending.
Fulham are above United in the league table and consistently scoring twice on their travels but have only kept one clean sheet in their last eight. Our main Manchester United v Fulham prediction is both teams to score.
