Manchester United predicted line-up vs Fulham as Alejandro Garnacho and Antony start

Manchester United will be going in search of a fifth successive Premier League win when they host Fulham at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.

United, who edged past the Londoners in the reverse meeting at Craven Cottage in November, winning 1-0, maintained their impressive run of form with a 2-1 win over Luton Town last time out. Rasmus Hojlund, who has since been ruled out for up to three weeks with a muscular injury, netted a first-half brace.

The victory moved United to within five points of fourth-placed Aston Villa and just three behind fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur, who are not in action this weekend because of the Carabao Cup final. It means the Reds will move level on points with Spurs with a win against Fulham.

Having named an unchanged team for last Sunday's win at Luton, United manager Erik ten Hag will be forced into a minimum of two changes against the Cottagers. As well as losing Hojlund to injury this week, United have also lost Luke Shaw, who was forced off in the first half at Kenilworth Road.

Ten Hag is expected to name Andre Onana in goal. The Cameroonian has played every minute of United's Premier League campaign this season and he will be determined to register a second successive clean sheet at Old Trafford after keeping one against West Ham United nearly three weeks ago.

As for the back-four, at least 25 per cent of it will have to be altered because of Shaw's injury, with Victor Lindelof highly likely to step in at left-back. The Swede replaced Shaw against both Villa and Luton, meaning he is expected to deputise from the start against Fulham.
