Despite facing challenges this season with the transition from former manager Ruben Amorim to Michael Carrick, Manchester United has successfully positioned itself in the Champions League race. Under Carrick’s management, the team secured impressive victories against Manchester City and Arsenal, showcasing a notable upward trend that initiated before his tenure began.
Upcoming Match: Manchester United vs. Fulham
- Date: Sunday, Feb. 1
- Time: 9 a.m. ET
- Location: Old Trafford, Manchester, England

- Odds: Manchester United -175; Draw +350; Fulham +400
Following their success against Crystal Palace on Matchday 13, United has lost only once in the Premier League, highlighting Amorim’s effective strategies even after his exit. Carrick is building upon Amorim’s foundation while adapting his approach to ensure continued progress.
The upcoming match against Fulham presents a valuable opportunity for further success. However, Carrick will need to adapt to an injury to Patrick Dorgu, among other considerations, while aiming to maintain their strong defensive and offensive balance.
As Fulham poses a threat with a capable attacking line, it will be critical for Carrick to manage the pressure as expectations rise at Old Trafford. Should he succeed, Manchester United may very well birth its resurgence following a six-match unbeaten streak.
