Man Utd vs Fulham live stream: How to watch Premier League game online and on TV, team news

Today's Man Utd vs Fulham live stream sees the Premier League 2024/25 season get underway as United look to start the campaign with a victory when they welcome the Cottagers to Old Trafford — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

Man Utd had a nightmare campaign last term as they finished eighth in the table, their lowest-ever Premier League finish. However, Erik Ten Hag did deliver silverware thanks to victory in the FA Cup final over Man City and it has been a busy summer for the Dutch manager. United have brought in four players, including Dutch forward Joshua Zirkzee and centre-back Matthijs de Ligt. Could they prove to be the difference for the Red Devils this season?

Fulham enjoyed a comfortable campaign last season as they finished in 13th and were never in danger of being dragged into a relegation dogfight. This summer they have had to rebuild after the exits of Tosin Adarabioyo, Joao Palhinha and veteran defender Tim Ream. Marco Silva has brought in some exciting talent, with Ryan Sessegnon returning and Emile Smith Rowe joining from Arsenal. 

Line-ups: 

Man Utd XI: Onana; Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Mazraoui; Casemiro, Mainoo; Amad, Fernandes, Mount; Rashford

Subs: Bayindir, De Ligt, Evans, Collyer, Eriksen, McTominay, Antony, Garnahco, Zirkzee

Fulham XI: Leno; Tete, Diop, Bassey, Robinson; Lukic, Pereira; Smith Rowe, Iwobi, Traore; Muniz

Subs: Benda, Castagne, Cuenca, Reed, Cairney, King, Wilson, Jimenez, Stansfield

Fulham secured a 2-1 victory at Old Trafford last season and are now aiming for consecutive away wins against Man Utd for the very first time. Tune in to see if they can achieve it.
