Marco Silva has provided a team news update ahead of Fulham’s trip to Old Trafford this Saturday. Kick-off is at 3pm.
The reverse fixture between the sides saw Manchester United clinch all three points in emphatic fashion with a superb Bruno Fernandes strike in injury time, which came after a tightly contested 90 minutes at Craven Cottage.
Fulham sit 12th-placed heading into the fixture while the Reds continue their top-four quest from sixth place – five points away from Aston Villa in fourth.

Regarding which of his men will be making the trip up North, Silva is expecting to have almost every member of his squad available. Willian, who was withdrawn early against Villa with a suspected hamstring injury, will need to be ‘assessed’ before the outing.
Elsewhere, Chelsea loanee Armando Broja has featured for just 31 minutes since his January switch and was absent last week through illness. Silva said of the forward: “Broja wasn’t well and wasn’t in a condition to be involved in the game but he’s okay.”
Broja, 22, has one goal and one assist to his name this campaign.
