2025 Fantasy Outlook
Cunha spent the 2024/25 season at Wolverhampton and finished with 21 goal contributions across 33 appearances (15 goals, six assists), and he figures to get even more opportunities to make a sizable impact at Old Trafford. Cunha should slot into the No. 10 role behind the striker and has the chance to form a partnership with Bruno Fernandes. Having racked up 27 goals and 13 assists for Wolverhampton over the last two seasons, Cunha should at least be able to match those numbers. That said, with players like Fernandes and Amad Diallo around him, Cunha may see less of the ball than at Wolves as less of a focal point.
Out with training knock
Cunha is sidelined with a knock suffered in training last week, manager Ruben Amorim confirmed. "It was a knock in the training, I don't know how long he is going to stay out. I think it's nothing serious but we cannot risk players."
ANALYSIS
Cunha picked up a knock in training over the weekend, which was enough to keep him out completely Monday. Joshua Zirkzee started in his place, though given the early performance, there's a chance someone else is used at Crystal Palace next match if Cunha can't go. The hope is more information will be released on Cunha ahead of the Gameweek 13 match.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Given new shirt at Old Trafford
Matheus Cunha will wear No. 10 at Manchester United in the 2025/26 season, according to Alex Crook of TalkSPORT.
ANALYSIS
As if there wasn't enough signs that Matheus Cunha was going to be a key player for Manchester United, the fact that he'll wear the No. 10 backs that up. That number belonged to Marcus Rashford in recent years. Cunha figures to be a key player for the Red Devils under the tutelage of Ruben Amorim.
