Competition: Premier League
Market: Fulham win
Odds: 3/4 @ BetUS
Hoping to find a route into the top-half of the Premier League table, Fulham will travel to Bramall Lane when they meet Sheffield United on Saturday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts, while Sheffield United might have entered March’s international break with a 2-2 stalemate away at Bournemouth, Chris Wilder’s side have continued on a major Premier League nightmare this season. Breaking a string of unwanted records and limping their way to an immediate Championship return, the Blades mark their return from the fortnight break sat rock-bottom of the table. Only collecting 14 points from their 28 Premier League appearances this year, Wilder’s downbeat squad have also gained a reputation for their glaring issues on home soil. Last seen at Bramall Lane slumping to a woeful 6-0 drumming at the hands of title contenders Arsenal, Sheffield United have lost all of their last four straight contests in front of their own supporters by a remarkable aggregate score of 21-2. Likewise, in what has been an abysmal record on home soil, Wilder’s squad have also conceded 26 goals in just their last six showdowns at Bramall Lane.
As for the visitors, making another statement prior to March’s international break, Fulham will make their return this weekend simply looking to carry on from where they left off earlier in the month. Last seen breezing their way to a 3-0 romp at home against Tottenham, some in Marco Silva’s camp are now dreaming of the chance to mount a famous European charge over the final couple of months. Sat just two points adrift of breaking into the top-half, the former Everton boss will certainly be smelling another golden opportunity here. Winning three of their previous four Premier League appearances, the Cottagers will be relishing a trip to Yorkshire. With their recent purple patch underlined by a stellar 2-1 win away at Manchester United on February 24th, Fulham are rightfully tipped as a standout contender here. Landing a 3-1 victory when they welcomed Sheffield United to west London on October 7th, we are predicting a similar outcome this weekend.
