Fulham vs Bournemouth Prediction & Match Preview

• Fulham won six of eleven league fixtures on the home patch this season.
• Bournemouth registered just two shots on target in the home clash with Nottingham Forest last weekend.
• Four of Fulham’s last five games in all competitions ended with fewer than three goals scored.

Fulham host Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon in the 24th round of the Premier League. The teams sit right next to each other in the bottom half of the league table. They are eight and seven points above the relegation zone respectively.

Neither outfit will go into this on a high. Fulham dropped a two-goal lead in a disappointing 2-2 stalemate at Burnley seven days ago. The Cottagers had full control of the game after scoring two early goals via Joao Palhinha and Rodrigo Muniz. Nevertheless, their players panicked later on and conceded the stoppage-time equalizer as a consequence.

It was the sixth consecutive winless game for Marco Silva and his troops in all competitions. They will have a nice chance to terminate this negative run in the clash with Bournemouth. The visitors have played in streaks so far in the season. They are currently on a poor one. The Cherries took only two points from the previous four league games.

Recent Meetings

• Bournemouth come into this on the back of two straight wins over the Cottagers.
• Fulham are winless in seven home outings against Bournemouth. The Cherries have won four in the process.
• Each of the previous three head-to-head encounters between these rivals saw three or more goals scored.

Fulham vs Bournemouth Prediction

Bournemouth did not offer much at all offensively in the last two draws to West Ham and Nottingham Forest. They grabbed an early lead last weekend against Forest but have failed to do anything in the final third ever since. Fulham looked great in the away match against Burnley until the final 20 minutes. They have generally shown strong performances at Craven Cottage this season. Marco Silva’s men won six of eleven league games on the home patch this term. It is enough for us to go for the home win pick at the 2.37 odds.

Four of Fulham’s last five matches across competitions finished with fewer than three goals scored. Bournemouth looked completely toothless in the final third in the last three league matches. They registered only two shots on target in the home fixture against Nottingham Forest on Sunday. The value is great with the Under 2.5 goals FT bet at the 2.05 odds here.
