Fulham v Man Utd TV channel and kick off time
Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League both carry Fulham v Man Utd, with a 4K feed on Sky Sports Ultra HDR. Kick off at Craven Cottage is 16.30 BST on Sunday 20 September 2026, and it is the last Premier League game before the international break.
Michael Carrick and Alvaro Arbeloa are, according to the bookmakers, the two managers most likely to be first out of a job this season. That is the backdrop at Craven Cottage.
United led Brighton 2-0 at Old Trafford on Wednesday and lost 3-2, the first time in 50 years they have given up a two-goal lead at home. It followed a derby defeat to a Manchester City side who played an hour with 10 men.
One win from four league games is the sum of it.
The defending is where it starts. Only the 4-0 win over Sabah in Europe has produced a clean sheet in six matches, and United have conceded at least twice in four of the other five, including both away trips to Hull City and Everton.
Manuel Ugarte, Tom Heaton, Matthijs de Ligt and Amad Diallo are all out until after the international break. Luke Shaw and Carlos Baleba have not been ruled out, while Senne Lammens, Harry Maguire, Kobbie Mainoo and Bruno Fernandes should come back in after starting midweek on the bench.
Fulham have one point from four league games, and it came in a goalless draw at Anfield that was rather better than it sounds. Having shipped seven goals in their opening three, shutting Liverpool out was a real step forward.
Wednesday was less controlled but more profitable, a 3-2 win over West Ham that put them into the fourth round, Oscar Bobb settling it on 78 minutes. Kenny Tete is out through concussion protocol and Tom Cairney remains absent, while Ryan Sessegnon faces a late fitness test on a groin problem.
History is firmly with the visitors. United are unbeaten in 10 consecutive trips to Craven Cottage, a run stretching back to a 3-0 defeat in December 2009, and Fulham took just one point off them across the whole of last season.
