Manchester United host Fulham in the Premier League on Tuesday, with both teams having nothing left to play for in the league.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be focused on making sure his side do not suffer any injuries ahead of their UEFA Europa League final against Villarreal next week.

The Red Devils have already secured a top-four finish in the Premier League and are currently second, four points ahead of Leicester in third. However, Solskjaer's men have faltered of late, losing three of their last five games across all competitions.

Fulham, on the other hand, are on the other end of the spectrum, having already been relegated from the league.

Scott Parker's side are currently 18th in the table and have been woeful this season. The Cottagers have lost eight of their last 10 league games and are currently in the worst form out of all the teams in the league.

Manchester United will hope that they can come out of this fixture unscathed.


Manchester United vs Fulham Head-to-Head

As expected, Manchester United have dominated the head-to-head record between the two sides. The Red Devils are unbeaten in their last five league meetings against Fulham, having won four of them.

Solskjaer's side came away as 2-1 winners in the reverse fixture earlier this season.
