Another weekend of Premier League drama, and this time it’s Fulham and Leeds taking center stage at the Cottage. Both sides are desperate to get things moving in the right direction. Fulham are still hunting for their first win of the season, while Leeds have had a mixed bag of results. So, who’s going to step up and grab the points? Let’s dive in.
The big question for Fulham is whether Issa Diop makes it back into the side after a knock. If he does, that backline will look a lot more solid. Apart from him, Marco Silva’s men are pretty much at full strength. That means the likes of Andersen, Iwobi, and King are all set to feature.
Leeds fans are waiting on updates for Ethan Ampadu and Gabriel Gudmundsson. Both could return, but Ao Tanaka is definitely out for now. That means a slightly reshuffled midfield again. Daniel James and Wilfried Gnonto should be leading the charge up top – and if Leeds are going to make something happen, it’s probably going to come through their pace on the break.
Likely Lineups
Fulham (4-2-3-1): Leno; Tete, Bassey, Andersen, Sessegnon; Berge, Lukić; Castagne, King, Iwobi; Muniz
Leeds United (4-3-3): Perri; Bogle, Struijk, Rodon, Justin; Longstaff, Gruev, Stach; Nmecha, Gnonto, James
Looks like Fulham will keep things tight with that double pivot, while Leeds will set up for counters.
Fulham have yet to see a game go over 2.5 goals this season, and Leeds have managed just one goal in three matches. So under 2.5 goals looks tempting again.
But at the same time, Fulham have had the upper hand recently in this fixture, winning their last three meetings with Leeds. That’s got to count for something.
Betting angles worth a look:
Fulham have shown they can mix it with the big boys, holding both United and Brighton to draws. At home, against a Leeds side that’s still figuring things out, this feels like the moment they finally get their first win of the season.
Leeds will try to frustrate and use Gnonto’s pace on the counter, but their defence still looks vulnerable. If Fulham keep their shape and take their chances, they edge this one.
Match Prediction: Fulham to win. Bet with bet365.
I’m leaning towards another tight affair, but Fulham just sneaking it. Leeds will probably get a goal on the break, but Fulham’s extra control in midfield should see them through.
Correct Score Prediction: Fulham 2-1 Leeds. Bet with bet365.
The numbers don’t lie. Fulham have seen under 2.5 goals in all three of their games this season. Leeds? One goal scored in total so far. So the smart money is on a low scorer.
Over/Under Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals.
If you fancy a bit more risk, 2-1 Fulham gives you that mix of a home win with both teams on the scoresheet.
Over/Under Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
Here’s a combo I like for this one:
That covers the home advantage, the low-goals trend, and Leeds’ one real spark in attack.
