Manchester United will continue their hunt for more silverware this weekend as they take on Fulham in the FA Cup quarter-finals. The clash comes three weeks after they lifted the Carabao Cup with a win over Newcastle United.
Fulham have been in very good form this term despite many predicting them to head straight back down to the Championship, with Marco Silva’s side currently vying for a place in European football next season. However, United will be confident of keeping up a brilliant record over the Cottagers, with the visitors failing to beat the Red Devils since December 2009.
