Wolves v Fulham Betting Preview – Championship 3rd November 7.45pm
Wolves picked up a midweek win against Norwich to return to the top of the table after a surprise loss last weekend against QPR. Will they be able to start getting some more winning momentum as they face off against the Cottagers at Molineux on Friday night? Fulham are down in the bottom half of the Championship table and have only picked up the two points from their last four games and just look a little bit out of touch at the moment.
Wolves v Fulham Betting Tips
Wolves produced the response of champions as they went and took an away win at Norwich in midweek. That was a good bounce back performance after having lost away at QPR in a surprise defeat last weekend. So they are back on top of the Championship pile and they go into this game as the joint top scorers in the Championship this season with 27 goals netted in 15 matches. They have produced some great free-flowing positive football which has impressed a lot of punters already. After a two match road trip, they get back to business at Molineux on Friday night and they are definitely a strong home form this season. Wolves are on a three match winning streak at home this season in the league, which is part of a W5 D1 L1 record overall on home soil this season. Four of their five home wins this season have been by a one goal margin only and Wolves to win by a one goal margin with William Hill in this one fetches a good price of 11/4.
Leo Bonatini is the 11/8 anytime goalscorer favourite and he’s up to nine goals for the Championship season, and he has been ably supported by Jota who is a 6/4 option in the market. Wolves have averaged 1.8 goals per game on home soil this season and they are yet to have found themselves in a position of being behind at the break in any home fixture this season. If recent head to heads is anything to go by then we should be in a for a Friday night feast. Each of the last four between Wolves and Fulham at Molineux have seen at least three goals and there have been a total of 21 goals in the last four clashes at Wolves, including last season’s thrilling 4-4 draw. Each of the last six meetings in all competitions have produced at least three goals and Wolves have scored at least three goals in each of those six games in that sequence.
So you have some clear value at 4/5 with William Hill on over 2.5 goals for Friday night’s match up. Fulham have had a really mixed season with a W 4 D7 L4 record on the board. Away from home, they have posted a W3 D2 L2 record for the season and they looked to be improving away from home before they slipped to a loss at Aston Villa in their most recent road game, back towards the end of October. The Cottagers have been drawing in five of their seven away games at half time this season, being ahead in the other two. So there could be value in the half time draw at for a price of 5/4. There has been a lack of scoring power compared to what they produced last season, but they haven’t done badly at the back in having conceded an average of a goal per game away from home. They have two clean sheets on the road this season, but none in their last four and they could be a little vulnerable against the league leaders.

Wolves v Fulham Predictions
Wolves to win: The Championship leaders can pick up a home win in this one and they are great value to do that. Fulham have done alright on the road recently, but a lack of wins in their overall home and away form raises question marks over them. Home win.
