With odds like that, I personally can't say Manchester United are the favorites in this match. Moreover, there is a seven-point difference between Fulham and Manchester United in the current Premier League standings. Although indeed, if considering about the record of head to head results it is clear, that Manchester United are still better with  the dominance of their victory. But indeed, because at this moment of course Amorim will still make the best effort to make Manchester United not lose, it can also be a chance for Manchester United to successfully win in this away match. But yes, in any case this match will be a difficult match for both teams, because they still make their best efforts to get points.

MU is favored at this time, but a draw is very likely happen if we look at how fulham can hold a strong team to a draw at their home.

Because Fulham acts as the home team, this factor is also a consideration for not immediately favoring Manchester United.
A draw bet is very likely to be the final result.

Fulham is a team that is of equal strength to Manchester United. Judging from the position in the standings, Fulham is better than Manchester United. If judged from 5 matches each, Fulham and Manchester United are also balanced.

Although there is a possibility of getting a draw, Fulham is actually more favored than Man United. because even though Fulham is currently performing inconsistently, they are able to perform quite well when facing big teams. and currently Manchester United is not a big team, so I think this match will likely be won by Fulham.

And if we look at the head to head record between the two teams, in their last 5 meetings, Fulham only got one win and Man United managed to secure 4 wins. But once again for now Man United is in a different situation, there is always doubt for United when playing in the English league, because they face a weaker team. but if you look at their performance in the UEFA European League, I have to admit that Man United performed very well

Considering the overall performance of these two teams this season, Fulham is stronger than Manchester United. Fulham has lost only 5 matches this season. On the other hand, Manchester United has lost 10 matches.

Fulham's overall performance is stable compared to Manchester United. Moreover, today's match is Fulham's home match. So I don't think there is any chance of calling Manchester United the favorite in this match. Both teams have the possibility of winning today's match. However, I don't think Fulham will lose their home match today.

It is a bit strange that Man United is more favored than Fulham, especially since Fulham has the advantage of playing at home. Besides that, Fulham also has higher points than Man United, and they are far ahead with a gap of 7 points. So Fulham should be the favorite rather than Manchester United. Fulham also often perform well against big teams (they won against Chelsea and drew against Arsenal and Liverpool), and I think they have a chance to win tonight.

It's a bit strange. But that's the reality.
Manchester United in the last five matches managed to hold two teams ranked 1 and 2 in the Premier League to a draw and in the last match also managed to win against the team ranked 2 in the Scottish league with away team status. Fulham in their last five matches have not faced a team as strong as Manchester United. Maybe that is the consideration why Manchester United is favored instead of Fulham as the home team in this match.
What do you think?

Odds and fixtures for this weekend's round (match day 23):



The most interesting one is obviously Man City Vs Chelsea. If the City wins tomorrow, they will jump back to the top 4 (Champions League zone) at the expense of Chelsea.
Chelsea is not doing great recently, they might have won their last league game but it was a home game against weak Wolves, so not much glory in that.
Man City gave a great show, beating Ipswich 6-0 in an away game, but got their asses whooped in the Champions League by PSG (4-2) so the team's morale may not be that high.
My prediction: 2-2 draw.

Now I will talk about the match of Manchester City football team with Chelsea football team. Chelsea football team could not perform well and lost the match after doing 1 goal in this match. The player of Chelsea team did goal very early in this match and he did goal at 3 minutes of the match and after this gaol we did not see any goal from Chelsea football team. After the goal of Madueke ,there was a goal from Gvardiol and Haaland. The possession percentage of Man City football team was excellent and that team possession percentage was excellent because that team possession was 57 percent and the possession of Chelsea team was low which was only 43 percent. The passes of Man City were also more and which were 567.

[KTChampions]

this is MU's chance to improve their position. They don't have to focus on Europe only, but their rank on the premier league is necessary to repair. Amorim is look frustrate to fix the attacker. Amorim even put Amad Diallo on the front to beyond Hojlund or Garnacho, but it's still not productive as expected. His only hope is Bruno, but we don't know if Bruno can give him the winning again because he will definitely be guarded by Fulham defender.

MU is favored at this time, but a draw is very likely happen if we look at how fulham can hold a strong team to a draw at their home.

I wonder where you saw this, because even from your picture it is clear that United are not the favorites. Unfortunately, United are currently showing such results that in the Fulham - United pair, Fulham is the favorite. I noticed this when I was looking at the odds for this round and I can't say it seems fair to me. I think the United Double Chance bet at 1.57 makes sense.

[Palakka]

Let's look at the current title competition, shall we? 



Liverpool have a really serious advantage. That's way clear. A missing game and a lead by 6 points... Arsenal are trying to catch up but that draw against Aston Villa was sad for them. You shouldn't lose a 2-0 score advantage easily if you are fighting for the title. 

And Nottingham Forest... They are very surprising, aren't they? The same points as Arsenal. An important steal of one point against Liverpool recently too. Most probably they wouldn't become the champions but even finishing in this area is way above their seasonal target for sure.

The postponed match owned by Liverpool could be an Ace card to increase their chances of trophies this season, a 6-point advantage and currently only arsenal is a serious challenger for them of course makes their journey to win the trophy this season look easier after nottingham lose in their last match, not meaning to underestimate arsenal, but we know that currently the mentality possessed by arsenal is very weak and even like the previous two seasons, I think they will still fail this season to become champions especially so far they still continue to experience poor inconsistency in their game, besides that the hurricane of injuries that hit arsenal I think has reduced their current performance and that's why Liverpool are actually more advantaged in the championship competition this season, in addition,  their better mentality, performance and also consistency compared from arsenal.

[Velvet78]

Liverpool prove once again how much they want the Premier League title this season. What a show by Arne Slot this season!    First year and who knows how many titles are in line...

Arsenal barely win. Not an impressive performance honestly and its reflection on the score at the same time, 1-0... They need to improve that to keep their chase of Liverpool. Such a classy comeback by Manchester City that was right? First when Chelsea got ahead honestly I didn't expect Guardiola to win that one easily. But they really deserved the win by 3-1. Now they are up to the 4th position, nice work done. At which position do you think they are going to finish the season?

I would not consider Manchester United as the favorite in this match. Fulham's performance this season is undoubtedly stronger than Manchester United. Also, as a home team, Fulham will definitely get some extra advantage. I would like to put Fulham ahead in this match.

Manchester United has disappointed me many times this season. Manchester United failed to win even against smaller teams. As a result, I lost my bet money. So I did not bet on this match. However, I think today's match will be a 1-1 draw. Manchester United will probably be happy with this match by sharing the points.

[BALIK]

Manchester United in the last five matches managed to hold two teams ranked 1 and 2 in the Premier League to a draw and in the last match also managed to win against the team ranked 2 in the Scottish league with away team status. Fulham in their last five matches have not faced a team as strong as Manchester United. Maybe that is the consideration why Manchester United is favored instead of Fulham as the home team in this match.
What do you think?

After the change of coach, we have seen some improvement in Manchester United's performance. Because of the improvement in performance, they were able to share points with Liverpool in the Premier League match. And they were able to defeat Arsenal in the FA Cup match.

However, Fulham is not a weak team. At least when compared to Manchester United, Fulham cannot be called weak. Fulham is playing well in today's match as well. In 40 minutes, we have not seen any team score a goal. However, the interesting thing is that in these 40 minutes, Fulham's players were able to make several strong attacks, but Manchester United's players did not try to attack much. Not a single shot was made by Manchester United's players in 40 minutes. Perhaps Manchester United will change their match strategy in the second half. Maybe we will not see any goals in the first half.

Fulham is a team that is of equal strength to Manchester United. Judging from the position in the standings, Fulham is better than Manchester United. If judged from 5 matches each, Fulham and Manchester United are also balanced.

Even in terms of attacking effectiveness, I think you can also conclude that Fulham is still more dangerous than Manchester United. Throughout the first half, Manchester United really had difficulty penetrating Fulham's defense, who were the hosts in this match, but I thought Amorim would make changes in the second half.

Possession of the ball was almost equal between the two teams, but Fulham managed to record 5 kicks, 2 of which were on target. Meanwhile Manchester United only had 1 shot throughout the first half and that was completely unexpected. Until the first half ended, the two teams were still playing in a goalless draw.

Before he arrived Liverpool, I never knew about Arne Slot but his incredible performances with club since his arrival last summer suggests that there are still great unpopular managers out there that'll conquer the top leagues in Europe when they get the opportunity. The fact that the Dutch manager didn't make significant signings after his arrival but have succeeded to make Liverpool more competitive than they've been in recent years tells more about his tactical genius.

 Convincing win for the Reds in their game against struggling Ipswich yesterday as they continue their quest to end Manchester City's dominance of the league.

Ok. I agreed with Manchester United regarding the effectiveness of attacking and difficulties of Manchester United's attacks to penetrate Fulham's defense. Even so, Manchester United as a favorite team before the game began. We think if a draw is very possible.

Although I agree with you as above, I also have an assessment and I conclude both are equally strong.
How about the second half? Then Odds now who is the favorite team.

The first half of the match has ended, and it ended as a draw. Fulham played well in the first half of the match, they played a mature game in the first half of the match. I didn’t expect such a performance from them. Manchester United had just 1 goal attempt in the first half of the match, and they had 0 shots on goal in the first half of the match. That's kind of bad. Let’s just see how the two teams are going to perform in the second half of the match, but if the match doesn’t end as a draw, then I won’t be surprised if Fulham ends up getting a win in the match. Fulham is a team that I am not underestimating this season, their performance has not really been so bad, and they have been able to surprise us in some matches.

60 minutes and the match is still at 0:0 and Fulham just got more serious in the second half and being more in ball possession compared to Manchester United, both clubs are having a close followup with their defense to avoid concealing any possible goals within this short remaining minutes of this match at least is better for both clubs to Walk away with a draw game tonight, since both of them are of equal demands, Fulham just hard a front line change, let's see what will come out from this change, overall, Manchester United is overplayed in this match are a possibility that their lose the game although the game is still 0:0 with Fulham more in control.

Yes, that's right. In this match, Fulham, apart from acting as the host, their current performance is indeed solid, especially when facing big teams. Even until the 75th minute, Man United had not made a single shot on target, this proves that Fulham's defense is quite solid while Fulham has made two shots on target.

If you look at Man United's performance lately, it seems that it will be quite difficult to win. Man United also has not found consistency in the game in the EPL League this season. Actually, Amorim has made a number of changes, both in terms of player composition, game scheme, but Amorim has not had a significant impact. So I think this match will also be won by Fulham, or maybe a draw.
Let's see until the end of the game which has 15 minutes left in normal time, will there be any surprises from both teams.

Manchester United managed to score a goal in the end. Lisandro Martinez scored in the 78th minute of the match to give Manchester United the lead. I would say that Manchester United are very lucky today. Because even after such a defensive game, Manchester United managed to score a goal. I thought we would not see any goals in this match. However, now the 82nd minute of the game is underway. Manchester United will now keep their defense stronger and will try their best not to concede any goals. Manchester United will leave the field today with 3 points.

Yeah, L. Martínez was able to seal a miraculous goal for Manchester United currently the game is in the 90+ minutes and with the record 1:0 and that has become highly exciting for Manchester United fans since they already lost hope in the match when they recorded the first yellow card before their goal score come in from Martinz so it ended as a good night for Manchester United squad.

Pep Guardiola included Khusanov in the starting XI for the Manchester City-Chelsea game. Khusanov is only 19 years old and coming straight from Ligue 1 to the EPL is of course huge for him, but it's also prone to mistakes. He was on the pitch with very little training with his new team and mistakes were inevitable. Of course, playing in the EPL, especially against Chelsea, makes young players shake in their boots. But some things get better on the road, it will happen, that's my confidence. I believe Pep will make one of the best stopper in the world out of him.

Pep Guardiola was in need of any defensive reinforcements he can get because he is tired of the defensive errors that has been disgraceful to the entire team for long since Rodri get injured, that was why he decided to gamble th young boy in order to boosts his experience because the boy is not here to watch others playing, he joined City to play because his position need reinforcements.

The boy’s performance was not bad as a start and as a player with no Premier League experience, and that was why he was replaced by John Stones in the second half, nevertheless, the young defender really tried his best and was able to avoid a lot of errors, and he has proven himself to be worthy of Manchester City start as a defender because Manchester City really need defenders.
