Recent respective form guides

Fulham's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Cottagers have scored 7, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Man Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occassions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Red Devils, and 1 goals against.

Fulham find themselves struggling down in 14th position in the league having picked up 17 points from their 16 matches. Man Utd. sit in a healthy 4th in the league, and have picked up 30 points from their 16 games.
