Premier League, played Sunday, December 29th, 2024
Here is our Fulham v Bournemouth tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to score in this game, over 2.5 goals, and a Bournemouth away win. Our confidence in this pick was high relative to other picks.
Another two clubs who have been more used to fighting relegation than jostling for places in the top half of the Premier League table will meet at Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon when Fulham take on Brighton and with just one point separating the two clubs, this upcoming tussle is expected to be a tight one.
Fulham currently occupy eighth place in the English top flight table and The Cottagers bring a decent and solid looking six-match unbeaten sequence into this upcoming encounter which includes picking up points in draws with Tottenham, Arsenal, Liverpool and Southampton, along with victories collected against Brighton and Chelsea as well.
Five of Fulham's last six games in the Premier League have also resulted in both teams scoring and although Fulham have been handed four defeats within their opening 18 games overall, this is a vast improvement upon previous campaigns as Fulham continue to prosper under manager Marco Silva.
The hosts have also registered seven wins so far in this season's campaign, four of which have been recorded on home soil at Craven Cottage which consist of victories gained over Leicester City 2-1, Newcastle United 3-1, Brentford 2-1 and Brighton 3-1 respectively.
Goals look likely here in this upcoming encounter at Craven Cottage as 14 out of Fulham's 18 matches have resulted in both teams hitting the back of the net.
Bournemouth also bring a decent sequence of results in the Premier League into this upcoming encounter on Sunday afternoon down by the Thames as the south coast visitors are unbeaten in their previous six league matches.
Points picked up in draws with West Ham and Crystal Palace have been boosted by picking up four wins which have come in the form of victories against Wolves, Tottenham, Ipswich Town and Manchester United, so The Cherries will also fancy their chances of collecting all three points in the nation's capital.
The bigger picture shows Bournemouth have slipped to just two defeats within their last 11 matches overall in the domestic top flight which were against Brentford and Brighton but this 11-game sequence also includes recording previous impressive wins against the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City as well.
After producing a slow start to this Premier League season away from home which saw the south coast visitors collect just one win from their opening six outings, Bournemouth have racked up three away wins on the trot, so the prospects of Andoni Iraola's side bulging the net here on Sunday look extremely promising.
Fulham v Bournemouth Verdict
Goals for both teams looks to be very much on the cards for this upcoming clash as five out of the last six meetings have seen both sides hit the back of the net, while Bournemouth might just sneak a narrow win here.
Therefore, our main bet will be BTTS Yes @ 1.53

Bournemouth win @ 2.75
