Wolves vs Fulham prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2024-03-08 15:00.
[p]This is a contest that could go either way as two solid mid-table outfits in Wolves and Fulham clash at Molineux. The hosts started the round down in tenth, but just four points from the top-seven, so securing European football does remain a realistic target. However, those hopes suffered a setback last week when Wolves were defeated 3-0 at Newcastle, ending a run of three Premier League wins from four matches (L1). [/p]
[p]Despite being shutout on Tyneside last week, it’s fair to say that’s been a rarity this season for Wolves who’ve been producing more dynamic attacking displays under manager Gary O’Neil, averaging 1.5 goals per game so far – their highest ever in a Premier League season. But the Old Gold have failed to score more than a single goal in any of the last three home Premier League H2Hs, yet clean sheets in each have helped them remain undefeated (W2, D1). [/p]
[p]Fulham head into the gameweek three points behind their hosts, yet recent form means they could well fancy themselves to make a late charge of their own towards those European spots. Marco Silva’s men have lost just one of their last six league games (W3, D2), with their two most recent matches, both wins, coming against potential rivals for those European spots (Manchester United 2-1 and Brighton 3-0).  [/p]
[p]That success against United at Old Trafford followed a draw in Fulham’s previous league road trip before that at Burnley (2-2). Those four points won on the road is more than the Cottagers had managed in their prior ten away league games (D3, L7), so confidence should be high that they can complete what would be a first-ever league double over the home side.[/p]
[p]Players to watch: After being forced to drop out of the squad on gameday against Newcastle, robust Wolves midfielder JoĂŁo Gomes could return – he’s made the second most fouls in the Premier League ahead of the round (43). Rodrigo Muniz’s goal and assist against Brighton made it six direct goal contributions for him in just five Fulham matches (G5, A1). [/p]
[p]Hot stat: Wolves have played no side in the Premier League more often than Fulham at home without ever losing (W5, D2). [/p]
