Fulham will welcome Wolves to Craven Cottage this Friday in the first fixture of this weekend’s Premier League action.
Fulham come into this tie in good form, having won their last three games in all competitions. Their last outing was a 1-0 win over Brighton in the Premier League, placing them just four points behind Tottenham in fourth position.
That result also left them with at least ten more points than they accrued in their last two Premier League campaigns. So they will feel confident about continuing that good form here, especially as only Manchester United have won more PL games than Fulham’s six since the restart (W6, D1, L2).

Three clean sheets in their last three PL games will also give them the belief that they can defeat this Wolves side struggling to score goals.
The visitors are the joint-lowest scorers in the league this season, with only 17 goals scored in 23 games. They failed to score in their last game against Bournemouth, the side with the league’s worst defence.
But they aren’t a bad side under Julen Lopetegui, who has led them to four wins in eight PL games (D1, L3). Wolves also have a good record against Fulham as they are unbeaten in five head-to-heads against the hosts (W3, D2).
Therefore, considering the hosts’ defensive solidity and the visitors’ struggles in front of the goal, we can expect a low-scoring affair with under 2.5 goals.
