Manchester United tool to build on their point tally towards the end of the season as they face off against relegated Fulham. The match schedules for Tuesday at Old Trafford with kickoff at 8 pm.
The Red Devils experienced a dip in form in their last two league outings with Leicester City and Liverpool. Similarly, their opponents are on a three-game losing streak that saw their relegation to the Championship in the 2021-22 campaign.
Despite all the criticism, Ole Gunnar Solksjaer can look back at a successful season while finishing second in the Premier League. Additionally, he has a chance to land silverware later this month with Villarreal in the Europa League finals.
Moreover, four points separate them from third-placed Leicester City, with one win this Tuesday guaranteeing their spot.
However, Ole Gunnar enters this match on the back of successive defeats, having lost 2-1 to Leicester City. It followed with a great intense rivalry against Liverpool at Old Trafford that ended in a 4-2 defeat.
Man United ends their domestic duties this Sunday with an away trip to Wolverhampton. After that, they end their Europa League campaign on May 26.
On the other hand, Scott Parker will not face the ax despite getting relegated by the board. However, the side remains without a victory since their 1-0 over Liverpool on March 7.
