Betting on Fulham F.C.
Known to many as one of England’s “promotion” teams along with Norwich City, Fulham appears to be here to stay in the Premier League this season. Not only has the team secured its place for next season, but it is also fighting for a ticket to European competitions by starting this matchday holding the seventh in the standings, and all this without having invested heavily in transfers.
The standing scores of Fullham, up until now, is 11 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses, with one of those nine defeats occurring in its last presentation against Brentford, a direct rival. Fullham lost by 3-2 in an evenly matched game in which Manor Solomon and Carlos Vinicius’ goals were not enough.
This ended Fulham’s seven-game unbeaten streak in all competitions, although it will now play at home, where it has not lost in four games, with two draws and two wins. Interestingly, the two wins were 2-0, while the two draws were 1-1.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Bernd Leno; Kenny Tete, Issa Diop, Tim Ream, Antonee Robinson; Harrison Reed; Sasa Lukic; Willian, Andreas Pereira, Manor Solomon; Aleksandr Mitrovic.
Betting On Arsenal
If anyone thinks Arsenal’s objective is not to win the Premier League title for the first time since the 2003/04 season, then you can take what the team has done during its match against Sporting Lisboa as an example. During its Europa League matchday 16 game, in a match in which, Mikel Arteta, the head coach, presented a starting eleven lineup with many variants, and left several key players behind.
Some of the regular starters who saw action on Thursday included Ben White, William Saliba, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Granit Xhaka, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli, and they were enough to get a 2-2 draw in Portugal to return to England with things even in the series. However, that result cut short a streak of four consecutive games with a win.
All of those wins came in the Premier League, although the last of them was far from straightforward, since Arsenal secured a 3-2 win over Bournemouth in the last play of the game thanks to a stunning goal from Reiss Nelson to cap an epic comeback. In addition, this was the third of those four games in which Arsenal scored three or more goals, showing off its offensive power.
Prossible Lineup (4-3-3): Aaron Ramsdale; Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes, Oleksandr Zinchenko; Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka; Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, Reiss Nelson.
JefeBet Prediction
Arsenal has shown some authorship over its rival throughout the last decade, avoiding defeat to Fullham in each of the last nine of their clashes, with Arsenal’s last loss to them being in January 2012, and precisely at this venue by a 2-1 scoreline.
Since then, the North London side has won on seven occasions. Therefore, we don’t think it will be any different this time around, since it will arrive with fresh legs despite having seen midweek action. Besides, Arsenal is also the team with the most away points in the campaign (31).
It is important to note that Fulham has lost just three of 13 home games this Premier League season. However, pay close attention to whom they lost to: Newcastle (1-4), Manchester United (1-2), and Tottenham (0-1). Do you see a trend there? That’s right, all are teams currently ranked above them in the standings.
Prediction: Arsenal Moneyline (FUL 1 – ARS 2)
