The Premier League season for 2024-25 kicks off at Old Trafford on August 16, as Man United bid to make a winning start to the campaign when they welcome Fulham. An opening night win will be required to ease any existing pressure on Erik ten Hag.

Before Betting On Man United vs Fulham

The 2023-24 season is one that United fans will be hoping to put behind them quickly after the club endured their worst finish in the Premier League era after finishing eighth in the standings. However, the season was ended on a high note after claiming FA Cup final success against Man City at Wembley.

The Red Devils have invested in youth during the off-season, following the signings of Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro. However, recurring issues from last season remain, as the injury bug has already hit United. Yoro will be unavailable for the first three months of the season, while Rasmus Hojlund, Victor Lindelof, and Antony have all been carrying knocks during pre-season.

Fulham enjoyed an excellent season in the top-flight once again under Marco Silva last term after finishing 13th in the competition. However, it would be a slight concern that they won just once in their last six matches at the end of last term.

The Cottagers sold one of their top stars during the summer, with Joao Palhinha finally making his move to Bayern Munich. However, they have invested in proven Premier League quality in the forms of Ryan Sessegnon and Emile Smith Rowe. Fulham will also take confidence from their 2-1 win at Old Trafford last season, ending a three-match losing sequence against the Red Devils.

It has been a testing pre-season for United, as the injuries are already mounting up ahead of the opening day of the season. However, we still expect the Red Devils to have far too much for the Cottagers on the opening day of the campaign.
