Premier League: Fulham v Manchester United - live text

Team news

Fulham head coach Marco Silva has no fresh injury concerns and could field the same side that won at Leicester City last weekend.

Reiss Nelson has returned to training after a hamstring strain, while full-back Kenny Tete is the only long-term absentee.

Manchester United defenders Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt have both suffered knocks in the past week, while Leny Yoro is fatigued after starting three successive matches.

Victor Lindelof is back in training but Luke Shaw is still not close to a first-team return.

Match facts

Head-to-head

  • Fulham's solitary win in the past 18 Premier League meetings came at Old Trafford last season thanks to Alex Iwobi's 97th-minute goal (D3, L14).

  • Manchester United are unbeaten in eight league visits to Craven Cottage, winning the last seven in a row and drawing the other.

Fulham

  • Fulham have lost just one of their previous 11 games in all competitions, drawing six and winning four.

  • Marco Silva's side are unbeaten in six matches at Craven Cottage, winning two and drawing four since a 4-1 Premier League defeat by Wolves in November.

  • The Cottagers are vying to score two or more goals in six successive top-flight fixtures for the first time since 1966.

  • They've scored in all but one of their 12 home matches this season, with the exception coming against Southampton in late December.
