Manchester United vs Fulham LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Old Trafford
Follow live coverage as Manchester United face Fulham in the Premier League today.
Manchester City are reigning champions after beating Liverpool to the finish line in a neck-and-neck 2021/22 title race where a comeback win on the final day of the season against Aston Villa secured a fourth title in five years for Pep Guardiola's side.
Jurgen Klopp's Reds were on course for a quadruple last season but were forced to settle for just an FA Cup and Carabao Cup win and will return trying to win the title again just as they did in 2020.
It was a dramatic season for Chelsea a year ago with Roman Abramovich now replaced by Todd Boehly as owner in west London. He will want an instant return on his hefty investment at Stamford Bridge while Tottenham, back in the Champions League, will want to kick on once more too.
It's not all about the action at the top though with Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest promoted to the top tier for 2021/22 and hoping to hold their own against the best English football has to offer and avoid the drop.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Solomon has scored a couple of excellent goals this season but fails to hit the target from outside the box, sending his right-footed shot wide of the post.

Pellistri does brilliantly to break through the heart of the pitch before playing a pass down the left to Martial. The forward then slides the ball to Sancho, who shifts it onto his right foot and curls a cross to Weghorst. The striker is there but sends his effort wide.

Fulham have lost their final league game in four of the last five seasons (drawing one), going down 4-0 at Sheffield United in the Championship last season.

SAVE! De Gea makes another good stop. Solomon has possession just outside the box and powers a low effort towards the bottom corner. However, De Gea is equal to it and pushes his shot away from danger.
