FA Cup holders Manchester United welcome Fulham to Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon with a spot in the quarter-finals on the line. 

Our tipster Brad Walker (@brad_TWalker) has run his eyes over the fixture and picked out his own betting tip ahead of kick-off. 

Manchester United vs Fulham analysis - Hosts' uncertainty continues

Manchester United might have beaten Ipswich 3-2 on Wednesday, but they hardly did so in convincing fashion.

More defensive calamity was seen for Ipswich's opening goal and, while Ruben Amorim's side do deserve some credit for battling back with 10 men, even wins against relegation candidates are looking a chore. 

United have now won two of his last five matches in all competitions and prepare to face a Fulham side with four wins in their last five. 

Each of their last four away matches have also ended in a Fulham victory.

Best bet for Manchester United vs Fulham

The home side may be the current holders of the FA Cup but their recent form has left little to be desired. 

United may have beaten Fulham on two occasions already this season, both by 1-0 scorelines, but the Cottagers more than played their part in both encounters. 

In fact, on another day Marco Silva's side could easily have left with something to their name.

A 2-1 away win at Wolves continued a superb season for the west Londoners, who somehow come in 2/1 underdogs for this one. 

Those odds look far too wide for me given the uncertainty which continues to surround United. Add in the fact they've already been beaten at home by both Brighton and Crystal Palace this calendar year, then the away win looks a worthy punt to me.
