Lindelof, Yoro, Shaw - Manchester United injury news and return dates ahead of Fulham

Manchester United will be hoping to make the perfect start to the 2024/25 Premier League season when they face Fulham at Old Trafford this evening.

United, in their first full season under Ineos' governance, will be determined to put last season's disappointing eighth-placed finish behind them and look ahead to more prosperous times.

Despite their pre-season results proving indifferent, United have produced some encouraging performances in recent weeks. They were unfortunate to leave Wembley empty handed last weekend after being beaten on penalties by Manchester City in the Community Shield. However, United's pre-season preparations were largely overshadowed by the losses of important players to injuries, meaning there are already fears they might experience a repeat of last season's curse.
