West Ham 11/10 to beat Fulham in Saturday’s Premier League showdown

Competition: Premier League

Market: West Ham win

Odds: 11/10 @ 888sport

Looking to build off of their eye-catching display earlier in the week, a high-flying West Ham will face off against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday evening.

Starting with the hosts, while Fulham might have managed to put in some resilient displays against the likes of Liverpool and Manchester United over the past six weeks, the Cottagers are still sat in pole position to be hit with an immediate Championship return. Last seen getting hit with a deserved 2-0 defeat against Leicester on home soil earlier in the week, Scott Parker’s side have failed to land a single Premier League victory since that win over the Foxes back on November 30th. Also crashing out of the FA Cup thanks to a 3-0 drumming at the hands of Burnley at Craven Cottage last month, it should be noted that Fulham have lost each of their last four straight matchups in West London. Suffering a 1-0 loss when they faced off against the Hammers in the reverse fixture, Parker’s side should face another stern test.

As for the visitors, while West Ham might have been disappointed by that 3-1 defeat against Liverpool last weekend, the Hammers certainly bounced back in some style. Making the trip to Villa Park earlier in the week, David Moyes’ high-flyers landed a deserved 3-1 romp away at Aston Villa and there is no doubt that the mood in their camp should be at a red-hot high. With many tipping the East London outfit as a genuine European contender this season, the former Everton boss has seen his side enjoy a stunning start to 2021. Remarkably winning seven of their eight matchups across all formats since opening the New Year, it should also be noted that West Ham have won their last three Premier League contests on the road, their best run since 2018. After picking up a 1-0 win when they faced off against Fulham in the reverse fixture, we’re backing a similar away victory this weekend.
