Excited for this one...

AMORIM: WE NEED TO WIN
"It is the kind of decision I have to make as a manager, to try and put the best players out to win the game.
"We need to have that urgency to win the game, we showed that last week and we need to show it again today.
"We know that every game is hard in the Premier League, which you can see by the results, but we want to win, we need to win, and we will do everything we can to win," said Ruben Amorim to Sky Sports.

HEAD TO HEAD
United tend to have the upper hand when the two sides face each other, winning 58, drawing 20 and losing 16.
The visitors came out on top 1-0 in this fixture last time out, thanks to a late goal from Lisandro Martinez.
United are without Martinez today due to injury, so someone else will need to be the hero today.

16:01
DIFFERING TRANSFER WINDOWS FOR THE TWO SIDES
United have had a very busy window, bringing in the likes of Bryan Mbuemo, Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko for nearly £200 million.
Whereas, the cottagers have only brought in back-up goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte, whilst losing Carlos Vinicius and Willian, with Reiss Nelson returning to his parent club Arsenal.
There is still just over a week left of the window and it remains to be seen whether either side will do more business.
15:57
AMORIM: WE ARE IMPROVING
"We are better, but also because we have different characteristics, and we can change that during the game. We have more options, and you see, we play a different style with Cunha, for example, and then, in the end, with Sesko, because he is a different player and we can use.
"We are improving in that department also. We are creating more chances, so we are ready for any kind of game. The biggest improvement we had [vs Arsenal] was we didn't lose the ball so many times in the build-up. That was really good also for our team."
15:54
LAST TIME OUT FOR FULHAM
Fulham salvaged a point in the dying moments of their opening day trip to Brighton thanks to a goal from Rodrigo Muniz.
Marco Silva's side were second best throughout, but Muniz's brilliance snatched them a point.
The Cottagers will be hoping to remain unbeaten today and pick up their first three points of the season.

A BIG AFTERNOON FOR RUBEN AMORIM

United showed encouraging signs last weekend against Arsenal, but were condemned to their 15th defeat in 28 matches under the former Sporting boss.
They could do with a win today.
