Tips & Predictions for Premier League game

Paddy Power’s Fulham vs West Ham odds suggest a tight encounter between two London clubs looking to lay a marker down early on this season.

The Hammers are fancied by many to do well having recruited some top talent and appointed a manager who has coached some of the world’s top teams.

As for Fulham, Marco Silva’s side finished in a comfortable 13th place last season and will be hoping to climb into the top 10 this time around.

Both sides have started well with one win to their name so expect this one to be a cagey affair with neither side needing to take risks.

It might not be the most notable London derby of the weekend, but with this being a local game expect a packed-out Craven Cottage.

Fulham have a clean bill of health heading into this one with Silva lucky to have everyone at his disposal.

Fulham Predicted XI: Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Lukic, Pereira; Traore, Smith Rowe, Iwobi; Muniz

As for West Ham, Niclas Fullkrug is a doubt after picking up a knock and Aaron Creswell is still out injured.

Goalkeeper Alphonse Areola is expected to return against his former club, though, and late arrival Carlos Soler could make his debut off the bench.

Fulham vs West Ham tips

Paddy Power football tipster Shane O’Brien is backing Jarrod Bowen to have 1+ shots on target.

Our pundit thinks Bowen “thrives on the counterattack” and is likely to be West Ham’s best chance at finding the target given he scored eight goals on the road last season.

Fulham vs West Ham prediction

West Ham recruited extremely well in the summer and have the quality to hurt Fulham. Areola coming back in is a big boost and the Hammers will be up for this one, although it will be close.
