Manchester United – Fulham: Carrick eyeing seven in a row 
Old Trafford gets a different Manchester United. Michael Carrick is one win away from matching the club’s longest winning run under Amorim, and Fulham arrive at the worst possible moment to stop it. Last weekend the Red Devils pulled off a massive scalp, beating Arsenal 3-2 at the leader’s ground, just days after toppling Manchester City. Two big-name wins that shove United straight back into the Top 4 scrap.
United: a side finally playing with freedom 
Carrick hasn’t just injected momentum — he’s given them an identity. United are six league games unbeaten, the best run in the division right now, and their attack has rediscovered fluidity. They’ve scored in each of their last eleven Premier League matches and conceded only once in their last three outings at Old Trafford. The win at the Emirates summed up the revival: Mbeumo pouncing, Dorgu unleashing a rocket, Cunha producing a masterpiece.
Arsenal hadn’t lost at home this season. Carrick is the first manager since 2010 to beat the two teams who were sitting first and second in consecutive matches.
Fulham: inconsistent, but dangerous 
Fulham oscillated between hot and cold for a while, but Marco Silva has steadied the ship. One defeat in the last eight, five wins, and they’re back in the European picture. Their latest result tells you everything: a Harry Wilson free kick in stoppage time to turn Brighton over 2-1. The Londoners are seventh, just four points off the Top 4. Their away form has flipped too: ten points from their last five trips after picking up just one from their first six on the road. Fulham held United to a 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage in the first meeting, and their last win at Old Trafford was February 2024 — the only victory in their last twenty visits to the Red Devils.
Probable lineups
Manchester United :
Lammens ; Dalot, Maguire, Martínez, Shaw ; Mainoo, Casemiro ; Diallo, Fernandes, Mbeumo ; Cunha
Fulham :
Leno ; Castagne, Andersen, Cuenca, Sessegnon ; Berge, Iwobi ; Wilson, Smith Rowe, Chukwueze ; Jiménez
Match Prediction Manchester United vs Fulham
Manchester United to win
Fulham have weapons and won’t roll over, but their defense hasn’t kept a clean sheet in six matches.
United, meanwhile, are playing with a liberty and confidence they’ve lacked all season.
Everything points to a third straight win for the Red Devils.

First, a word about our predictions
- What we publish on Mathodds are analyses, nothing more. We give an opinion, a read on the moment, not a guarantee. Sport is unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a freak goal… and the whole script flips.
- Let’s be blunt: there’s no such thing as a risk-free bet. Even when something looks “obvious”, it rarely is. Yes, that means you can lose. It will happen at some point.
- Bet sensibly. Stake small, set a budget and stick to it. Don’t touch money you need to live on. And don’t chase losses — it almost never ends well.
- Betting should stay a pastime, not a job or a source of income. If it’s taking over your life, making you angry or stressed, take a break. If needed, reach out to a specialist body. That’s what they’re there for.
- Ultimately, you’re responsible. Reading our content means accepting that risk exists and will never disappear, even with the best analysis.
- Important reminder: betting is banned for minors and must follow your local law. Gambling can spiral (money loss, family tension, addiction). Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.
