Man Utd are a mess that not even an erratic 3-2 victory over relegation-threatened Ipswich in midweek can fix. Ruben Amorim remains wedded to a 3-4-3 system that could scarcely suit his squad less, while off-field redundancies only add to the malaise at England's most successful club.

The defending champions have saved their best form for the FA Cup, though, and particularly impressed in knocking out Arsenal in the third round before Harry Maguire's late effort saw off Leicester in the last round. The Red Devils will be without the suspended Patrick Dorgu, with Amad Diallo and Kobbie Mainoo among the longer-term absentees.

Fulham boss Silva shuffled his pack for the midweek trip Wolves, with Rodrigo Muniz and the lesser-spotted Ryan Sessegnon taking advantage of rare starts to find the net in a 2-1 win. The Portuguese has used FA Cup victories over Watford and Wigan to share some minutes around his squad this season, but in doing that in the Premier League he may go back to his heavy hitters at Old Trafford, such as in-form left-back Antonee Robinson, a resurgent Raul Jimenez and Calvin Bassey. With 12 points from their last 18 in the league, the Cottagers are chasing European qualification and a possible first major honor in their 146-year history.

You won't want to miss this one so read on as we explain all the ways to get a Man Utd vs Fulham live stream wherever you are.
