West Ham in Trouble Near the Bottom of the Table as They Travel to Fulham

There is plenty of action to enjoy in the English Premier League on the weekend including the meeting between Fulham and West Ham at Craven Cottage.

The game will be played on the 8th of April and the hosts begin the weekend in 10th place on 39 points while the visitors are in 15th place on 27 points.

Fulham come into the game on the back of a 2-1 defeat at Bournemouth last week in the Premier League. It was Fulham who opened the scoring after only 16 minutes but Bournemouth came out strongly in the second half and equalised shortly after the interval. The Cherries scored their second goal with 11 minutes remaining on the clock.

The defeat at Bournemouth means Fulham have lost each of their last 4 fixtures in all competitions. There have been defeats at Brentford and Bournemouth in the Premier League, at home to Arsenal in the Premier League and away to Manchester United in the FA Cup.

Trends show Fulham have won just 1 of their last 6 matches in all competitions. They have won only 2 of their last 9 games in the Premier League and 3 of their last 8 league fixtures at home.

Fulham have seen over 2.5 goals in their last 4 games in all competitions, including each of their last 3 matches in the Premier League.

West Ham make the short trip to Craven Cottage having suffered an embarrassing 5-1 loss at home against Newcastle United in the Premier League.

The level of performance from the Hammers was poor and they gifted Newcastle United goals throughout the 90 minutes. West Ham got back into the match when they scored their only goal of the game in the 40th minute but conceded 3 goals in the second half.

The defeat to Newcastle United was the first loss for West Ham in 5 matches. There have been wins over AEK Larnaca home and away in the Europa Conference League plus a victory at home over Southampton in the Premier League.

Form in the Premier League shows West Ham have won only 2 of their 8 most recent fixtures. They have failed to win any of their last 11 league games on the road, losing 6 of their 8 most recent away trips in the Premier League.

Team news and Fulham are without suspended striker Aleksandar Mitrovic. Defender Layvin Kurzawa has a knee injury and will not be fit for this game.

West Ham have just the one injury concern and striker Gianluca Scamacca is out until the end of the month with a knee problem.

West Ham were shocking on Wednesday night and cannot afford a repeat performance in this game. Fulham are on a 4 match losing streak but that could come to an end in this match.

We expect to see both teams scoring and for Fulham to come out on top in what should be a closely fought game.
