Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Friday’s football game between Manchester United and Fulham will raise the curtain on the 2024/2025 Premier League season. The Red Devils are eager to make amends for the unsuccessful 2023/24 EPL campaign and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Cottagers on Matchday 1. The likes of Leny Yoro (centre-back) and Joshua Zirkzee (centre-forward) have joined the club, while Raphael Varane and Donny van de Beek are no longer parts of the team.
Fulham, meanwhile, managed to keep hold of key players, except for midfielder Joao Palhinha, who joined Bayern Munich. Summer signings Jorge Cuenca and Emile Smith Rowe are widely expected to make their official Fulham debuts against Man Utd. Experienced winger Willian has decided not to commit his future to the Cottagers. Fulham generally suit Manchester United and we predict that Erik ten Hag’s troops are going to pick up all three points from the season opener.

Bruno Fernandes is a Portuguese footballer who used to play for Novara before joining Udinese in a co-ownership deal in the summer of 2013. The Portuguese midfielder scored his first goal for the club in a 3-3 draw with Napoli on 7 December, 2013.

Soriano He played 33 games for the Zebrette in the 2015/2016 Serie A campaign, scoring three goals for the club, while providing four assists for his teammates.

Highlighted Team (Fulham):
Fulham are a club from London that play in the Premier League. The capital club dropped to the English second tier at the end of the 2013/2014 Premier League campaign after failing to impress in the elite competition, but managed to return in season 2018/2019.
Fulham were founded in 1879 and they play their home matches at Craven Cottage. Fulham are the oldest-established club from the English capital to have played in the top flight.
Fulham finished the 2008/2009 Premier League campaign in seventh place in the standings and that is considered the team’s biggest success, speaking of their participation in the Premier League.
The Cottagers played in the Europa League twice and they did well to reach the FA Cup final in 1975, but they were beaten by their local rivals West Ham United in the title game (0-2). Chelsea are regarded as Fulham’s bitter rivals as well and the two teams take on each other in the North London derby.
