Manchester United host Fulham this afternoon looking to register a third win on the trot.

Michael Carrick’s arrival at Old Trafford has revitalised a squad that continued to bumble along under Ruben Amorim.

Wins against Manchester City and Arsenal have proved a top-four finish is possible this season, although it won’t be straightforward against Fulham.

The Cottagers are three places and four points worse off than United but on a good run. They have lost just one of their last eight league games – at Leeds a fortnight ago.
