Fulham vs Manchester United Bet Builder Tips: Hosts to come out on top in 18/1 shot

Fulham are three places and six points better off than Manchester United ahead of the sides’ second clash of the season at Craven Cottage on Sunday (19:00 KO, live on TNT Sports 1).

The home side's firepower and visitors' general malaise are the focus of my Fulham vs Manchester United Bet Builder tips.

Fulham to win

Fulham fans would approach the January transfer window in trepidation in years gone by, but there have been virtually no rumours of star players being sold this year as the squad are fully bought into Silva’s project.

Meanwhile, Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho continue to be shopped around by their agents as United struggle to attract any big names in their time of need.

The Red Devils lack a reliable goalscorer, a left-sided wing-back and central defenders with pace and all those weaknesses can be exploited by the Cottagers.

Silva could call up Adama Traore, who has tormented United in the past, or rely on Antonee Robinson to bombard the visitors’ defence with crosses.

Amorim’s team have lost six of their last nine Premier League games and remain on course to tally more defeats than the 14 they did last season.

So this looks to be a great opportunity for Fulham to ensure the points remain in the capital.

Over 1.5 Fulham goals

The Cottagers have found a goalscoring groove of late, bagging more than one goal in each of their last six games in all competitions.

Since they stunned leaders Liverpool by registering twice at Anfield, they have scored the exact same number of goals in four of their five subsequent Premier League games.

Fulham have the firepower to extend that sequence against a United team that has been too easy to punish this season.

Brighton opened them up with a simple pass over the top at Old Trafford last week and they were caught out by another long ball at home to Rangers on Thursday.

United’s set-piece issues have been exposed this term with the team having conceded two goals direct from corners.

A lot of Fulham’s attacking focus is on crossing the ball and they should be looking to target the far post on Sunday after how Brighton scored their second last Sunday.

Fulham vs Manchester United Odds

Over 5.5 Fulham corners

The cross-happy Cottagers should be able to tally half a dozen corners in the clash too.

Five of United’s last seven away league opponents registered at least six corners while Fulham are currently averaging just under six per home game in the Premier League.

Raul Jimenez to score first

Mexico striker Raul Jimenez has recently been Fulham’s dangerman at home recently, hitting four goals in the club’s last four games at Craven Cottage.

Of his eight Premier League strikes, six have been the opener and seven have been the Cottagers’ first of the game.
