Fulham vs Nottingham tips and predictions

Varied predictions expected in Premier League

With only 2 points between these clubs it's 14th placed Fulham versus 15th placed Nottingham in this Premier League clash.

When Fulham host Nottingham it should be an eagerly contested game, regardless of team allegiances. At the prices available the home side would be favoured to be celebrating at full-time. It feels like a game to just sit back and enjoy.

You may not agree but Fulham might have reasons to be confident about adding to Nottingham's latest reverses. The visitors are short of form away from home; they've suffered 13 losses from their last 17 away trips. That might not be suitable preparation for this.

The hosts are putting together some decent passages of play and they're gaining plenty of new fans. The Cottagers have scored three or more goals in 4 of their recent 8 matches.

Nottingham have had issues when not on their own turf lately. They've conceded two or more goals in 14 of their last 17 away matches. Legitimate scoring chances have been conspicuous by their absence too. At times, the visitors have stuttered in front of goal. They've been goalless in 3 of their last 4 away matches.

They already know what it's like to face each other. Fulham have won 7 of the last 9 fixtures between the two teams. In terms of the previous meetings the head-to-head stats point to another home win.

It's possible that this match will be determined by which team is the first to open their account. Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out in a battle of attrition. It is not a strong view among today's fixtures but the No BTTS bet looks like the pick there.
