Fulham v Wolves Betting Preview
Newly promoted Wolves have yet to really show their teeth so far in the early days of the Championship. A narrow victory over Norwich on the opening day was followed up by an away defeat on the weekend. But then Fulham have fared worse, losing their two opening matches, but they have strong home form going against Wolves.
Fulham v Wolves Betting Tips
The Cottagers have won four and drawn two of their last six home matches against Wolves. To add weight to looking at some value on Fulham in this one, the away team has not won in any of the last 12 meetings between these sides in all competitions. Fulham opened the season with an away loss against Ipswich and then lost at home on the weekend against Millwall. It hasn’t been a positive start in the Championship for Fulham who dropped from the Premier League last season. Boss Felix Magath has largely been trusting in his youth to get things right for them this season and make a challenge to get back up to the top flight.
Finding goals is clearly an issue for them at the moment, but there is quality in there with Ross McCormack, Moussa Dembele and Hugo Rodallega in the mix. Can they deliver their first win of the season to get them going in the right direction? It would be a huge boost of confidence for them. The last time that they ran into Wolves was in the 2011/12 Premier League, with Fulham taking a 5-0 win in this corresponding fixture after losing 2-0 at Molineux. But it is that strong home form which they have going against the Midlands side which could at least produce some value in them not losing against Wolves again.
Wolves have scored just one goal in their last five visits to Craven Cottage now, so the history is stacked against them. They have tough home games coming up against Cardiff and Blackpool too, so at least a point from this one would be something for them. They were impressive in their attack-mindset last season in League One, but haven’t hit the ground running naturally in the step up in division. Rotherham somewhat comfortably kept them at arms length on the weekend. Could it be worth perhaps just shooting for some bigger value in backing Fulham to win to nil at a price of 10/3 given all of this? Nouha Dicko is shortest priced option for Wolves at 2/1 in the anytime goalscorer market.

Fulham v Wolves Predictions
The stats all lean towards Fulham not losing this one. But they haven’t found their feet just yet in the Championship which casts some doubt on the. But then again Wolves are still adjusting to a step up in divisions. Really tough one to call, but the value of 11/8 on the home side to put a victory on the board, especially with all the head to head stats in their favour, shouldn’t be ignored.
