When will Manchester United finally start ascending the table under new manager Ruben Amorim? When will the rebuilding project start to show any signs of progress? Hard to say! Wish we knew the answers to that. But winning at Fulham FC would be a great place to start.
After all, the Craven Cottagers are a side that’s higher up the table than United.

Amad Diallo is obviously the most un-droppable (and yes, we’re aware that is not an actual word) player on United right now, so he’s obviously the first name we put in our prediction.
Alejandro Garnacho is being linked away this transfer window, with Chelsea being speculated on as a potential destination. However, he won’t move before this match kicks off, so we included him in the projection too.
