Manchester United face their first away test of the new Premier League season when they travel to Fulham this afternoon. The Red Devils kick off at 4:30pm BST at Craven Cottage, seeking their first win after a 1-0 home defeat to Arsenal last weekend.

Ruben Amorim's side showed encouraging signs despite the loss to Arsenal, giving supporters hope after a disappointing 2024-25 campaign. The Portuguese manager faces key selection decisions as he looks to secure a positive result in west London.

Team news and potential debuts

Benjamin Sesko could make his full Manchester United debut after one substitute appearance since his arrival. The striker is in contention to start as Amorim considers his attacking options for the crucial away fixture.

Andre Onana is available after injury and could return to replace Altay Bayindir between the posts. Manchester United travelled with 21 players to Craven Cottage, requiring one to be dropped from the matchday squad.

Fulham seeking home advantage

Fulham left it late to earn a point against Brighton in their opener, with Rodrigo Muniz scoring a 97th-minute equaliser. Marco Silva's side will be looking to make home advantage count as they attempt to avoid losing a third straight Premier League fixture against today's opponents.

The Cottagers face pressure in the transfer market, with Silva reportedly seeking reinforcements from the club's hierarchy. United, by contrast, have been backed heavily in the transfer window under Amorim's management.

Sky Sports will broadcast the match live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage starting at 4pm BST. Sky Sports subscribers can stream the game through the Sky Go app, while Match of the Day 2 will show highlights at 10:30pm on BBC One.
