Manchester United will be bidding to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they travel to Fulham on Sunday. Ruben Amorim's side, who beat Rangers 2-1 in the Europa League on Thursday, lost their last top-flight game against Brighton last weekend.

It was a result that left United down in 13th in the table, having picked up just 26 points from their 22 matches. They have won just SEVEN league fixtures this season, drawing five and losing 10. At this stage, United are closer to the relegation zone than they are to Bournemouth in seventh.

As for Fulham, they have enjoyed a much better campaign than their opponents. Despite losing at Old Trafford on the opening day of the season, Marco Silva's Whites sit 10th and seven points above United right now. They stopped a mini blip in form by beating relegation-threatened Leicester 2-0 last time out.

When is the game?

Manchester United's trip to Fulham is scheduled for a 7pm kick-off time on Sunday, January 26.

The game will take place at Craven Cottage in London.

Why is it a 7pm kick-off time?

The match was supposed to take place on Saturday at 12:30pm, as it was selected by TNT Sports to be part of their TV coverage. However, United playing in such a slot would not have allowed them sufficient time to rest and recover time after their Europa League tie against Rangers.

United wanted as close to 72 hours rest as would be possible in the circumstances and the game was pushed back to 7pm on the following day to avoid clashing with Sky Sports' Super Sunday fixtures.

How to watch?

The game will be broadcast on TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports Ultimate, with coverage set to start at 6pm.

Subscribers will be able to watch on a live stream via the Discovery+ app.

Team news

Reiss Nelson is back in first-team training but the visit of United is expected to come too soon. Kenny Tete, meanwhile, is unavailable until the end of March or early April.

As for United, Noussair Mazraoui was left out of the matchday squad to face Rangers as a precaution. Leny Yoro and Matthijs de Ligt will be assessed after suffering injuries, while Victor Lindelof has resumed training and Luke Shaw is set to follow in the near future.
