'Man United limped over the line in top-4 race': Chris Sutton makes Fulham clash prediction

Speaking to the BBC, Chris Sutton said: "Fulham gave it a really good go the last time they were at Old Trafford in the FA Cup quarter-finals in March, before things unravelled for them extremely quickly.

"I think Marco Silva's side will make a game of it this time too. Manchester United made sure of a Champions League place next season with Thursday's 4–1 win over Chelsea and I am sure next weekend's FA Cup final will be on their minds.

"Erik ten Hag's side have limped over the line a bit in the race for the top four, but their home form has been solid and they should have too much for the Cottagers again this time too.

"Fulham will finish 10th whatever the result — they have had a brilliant season and I've enjoyed watching them. I must admit I thought they would get relegated so I was only slightly out there."

Sutton's prediction: Man United 2–1 Fulham

Man United will be in great spirits at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon having secured their place in the Premier League top four earlier this week.

The Red Devils have an FA Cup final against Manchester City next month to focus on as the curtains are about to be drawn on the 2022/23 season.
