Fulham, who were given the honour of opening the new Premier League season alongside Manchester United, appeared to hold out for a creditable point in the Theatre of Dreams last Friday, as Marco Silva’s side repelled several futile attacks from Erik ten Hag’s team.
Fulham, on the other hand, failed to capitalise on any opportunities that presented themselves, and with three minutes of normal time remaining, Man United newcomer Joshua Zirkzee met Alejandro Garnacho’s delivery and scored a delicate first-time complete into the far corner.

Speaking of two-goal impasses, Leicester should not have had a chance to turn things around against Tottenham on Monday, as Cooper’s side was thrashed in the first half, but the Whites only had Pedro Porro’s goal to show for it.
Tottenham were denied a second goal on several occasions by Foxes goalkeeper Mads Hermansen, and with Ange Postecoglou’s defence at its weakest early in the second half, Jamie Vardy, the 37-year-old Big Six tormentor, took full advantage.

Despite both failing to win on matchday one, Saturday’s competitors may have had more positives than negatives to consider, even if Leicester were atrocious in the opening forty-five minutes against Tottenham before improving in the second half. A similarly slow start may not be fatal against Fulham, whose lack of entry let them down at Old Trafford, and we anticipate the points being split evenly in this one.
Fulham 1-2 Leicester City, predicted by us.
