Manchester United take on the visitors Fulham in the round 38 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, May 28th at Old Trafford (Manchester).
Manchester United are concluding their first year under Erik ten Hag. There are, of course, some things to blame the Dutchman for. Not everyone supported his personnel decisions, including the farewell to Ronaldo (which was also quite scandalous, but who is to blame if not Cristiano himself?). And there were painful setbacks, particularly the thrashing by Liverpool and the 0-3 loss to Sevilla, which ended their Europa League campaign. On the other hand, it was under this manager that the "Red Devils" clinched their first title after a hiatus. Yes, it's only the League Cup, but it's a case of "beggars can't be choosers." Moreover, they have another final ahead, in June, for the more prestigious (and simply ancient) FA Cup. And, most importantly, they achieved their main goal: the return of the grand club to the Champions League. Yes, there were some setbacks in the spring, but the "Reds" didn't allow themselves to be caught. They beautifully secured a top-four finish by convincingly defeating Chelsea in a rescheduled match of the 32nd round on a Thursday evening.

Fulham have been bouncing between divisions for a long time, essentially being a typical "elevator" club. It was the same last season, and their promotion from the Championship didn't surprise anyone – it was perceived as a sort of "mandatory program." Just like their expected relegation the following year. However, in the Premier League, Marco Silva was able to showcase his talent to the fullest. The "Cottagers" started accumulating points from the early rounds without fear of the giants. Furthermore, by spring, the newly promoted team was among the contenders for European competitions. But they either couldn't or didn't want to fight for such a lofty goal. The lengthy suspension of Mitrovic (Aleksandar scored 14 goals) for pushing a referee also had a negative impact. Nevertheless, by opting out of even contending for the Conference League, the London-based team currently looks more than capable. They confidently defeated "Leicester" and "Southampton" with scores of 5-3 and 2-0, respectively. They played a competitive draw of 2-2 with "Crystal Palace," a strong mid-table team. Of course, they want to finish the long-awaited successful season in the Premier League on a brighter note.
The last time the "Cottagers" won against Manchester United was in 2009. This season, the "Red Devils" emerged victorious in both the Premier League and cup formats. Manchester United is considered the clear favorite in this matchup. However, nobody wants to repeat Anthony's unsuccessful example of "breaking down" just before the holidays. Both clubs have already achieved their objectives, and successfully at that. We predict that the match will end with "under 3.5 goals" in total.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
