After what felt like a full 10 minutes, Premier League football returns on Friday night with an interesting Manchester United v Fulham clash.
Our pal Mark Lawrenson is known for his predictions but he’s given the crystal ball an extra week off to recover from the Euros and a pre-season tour of the Far East. Predictions will return for game week two but it’s all about a Bet Builder for Friday night right here.

Fulham actually beat Manchester United at Old Trafford late on last season but I don’t think they’ll be as strong this time around. Manchester United are missing some players but they look like they are building a team under Erik ten Hag now.
They seem to be getting numbers in defensively and in midfield as well. I’d fancy Manchester United to win. I don’t think Fulham will score, I fancy United to win 2-0.
Depending on the timing of when they get that second goal it will either be an easy match for United or a bit of a struggle. Who’s scoring with Rasmus Hojlund out?
That’s a very good question and the goals have got to come from all over the pitch. I’m not sure who Ten Hag’s going to go with but, in saying that, they’ve still got the quality up top even if the team isn’t performing and the results are poor.
But now Bruno Fernandes as signed his massive new contract he might pop up with a goal. It’s a big year for Marcus Rashford. It’s, do you want to be a fantastic footballer like he has been at times or will you just be remembered for a couple of good seasons?
