Because this is the opening match everyone wants Man United to control the game and successfully bring home 3 points. On paper Man United should have been able to win the match easily, but remember this is a different Man United and in the hands of coach Ten Hag so all expectations attached to Man United are no longer valid. As a result I can still favor Fulham, because Man United losing to a small team is no longer a surprise. This club still needs to improve in terms of player recruitment and management.
For the players that Manchester United already has, they are actually quite good and capable, but they only need the best ideas or tactics from their own coach so Ten Hag should be able to think about that now. Because Fulham is an opponent that Manchester United should be able to beat even though it is not easy because Fulham is also a team that has strength in the Premier League. So I just think that their match could be quite fierce in order to get three points at the start of this season.
