10* OVER Fulham/Man U (EPL TOW)

This is going to be a "gimme" for Man U. United is coming off a difficult season and off-season. The pressure is already tremendous for the home side to start performing right out of the gate, but in three pre-season matches they suffered three-defeats in five outings (including a 3-0 loss to Liverpool in the USA.) Most recently the Red Devils lost to their city rival in the FA Community Shield. Fulham won here last year, one of six home defeats out of 19 games for United. They'd lost to Fulham just three times over the previous 33 matches. Now Fulham is motivated to make it two away victories against United for the first time in its history. The Cottagers ultimately finished in 13th place last year, but they did win two of their last three away games last season (it's also noteworthy that the L4 meetings in this series in league play have been won by the away side.) With each team pushing the pace like we anticipate, the "over" is the correct call as far as the total is concerned in our opinion!
