Fulham vs Sunderland prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2025-11-21 15:00.
[p]Fulham hope to put distance between themselves and the Premier League relegation zone as they host Sunderland, who went into the international break inside the top four.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]After winning just one of their last six Premier League games (L5), Fulham are heading in the wrong direction and now sit just one point above the relegation zone. Manager Marco Silva retains the full support of the board at Craven Cottage, and was even reported to have been offered a new contract over the international break! Injuries haven’t helped his cause, but despite collecting their lowest Premier League points tally after 11 games since 2020/21 when they went on to be relegated, Silva has delivered solid results at home, where they’ve only lost to Arsenal all season in the league (W3, D1) and were comfortable 3-0 victors over Wolves in their last game here. [/p]
[p]Sunderland arrive buoyed by becoming the first side to put two goals past Arsenal all season in their latest fixture (D 2-2), and could give Silva another headache as they occupy fourth place thanks to an ongoing four-match unbeaten league run (W2, D2). The Black Cats have been weaker on the road (W2, D1, L2) than at home, so fans might be a little cautious as they head south, although they’ll take the positives from their two league away wins this term coming across their last three such fixtures (L1), including one at Fulham’s west London rivals Chelsea![/p]
