We have reached the round of 16 in the FA Cup and on the 28th of February we have a meeting between Fulham and Leeds United. The game will be played at Craven Cottage and the hosts are currently 6th in the Premier League while the visitors are in 17th place in the Premier League.

Fulham come into the match on the back of a 1-1 draw at home with Wolverhampton Wanderers. It was the away team who opened the scoring after 23 minutes but Fulham scored the equaliser in the 64th minute. Despite coming back to take a point, Fulham would have been hoping to win all 3 points against a team battling against relegation.

The draw with Wolves means Fulham are undefeated in their last 6 fixtures in all competitions. There have been wins over Nottingham Forest at home and Brighton away in the Premier League plus a 3-2 win at Sunderland in the previous round of the FA Cup.

Having entered the competition in the third round, Fulham have beaten Hull City and Sunderland away in the FA Cup but needed a replay against the latter following a draw at home.

Trends show Fulham are undefeated in 6 of their last 7 home games in all competitions. However, they have won only 1 of their 6 most recent home FA Cup ties and both teams have scored in 3 of their last 4 FA Cup matches on home soil.

Leeds United travel south to Craven Cottage having recorded a crucial 1-0 home win over Southampton in the Premier League on the weekend. The only goal of the game was scored 13 minutes from time and the result saw Leeds United move out of the relegation zone.

The victory over Southampton was the first win in 5 matches for Leeds United. They lost at Nottingham Forest and Everton in the Premier League plus at home to Manchester United in the league. There was also a good draw at Manchester United in the Premier League, a match which finished 2-2.

Leeds United have played two games in the FA Cup this season, beating Cardiff City and home and Accrington Stanley away. Leeds United have won only 1 of their last 9 away matches in all competitions and 1 of their 8 most recent away FA Cup ties.

Team news and Fulham have doubts over the fitness of Aleksandar Mitrovic plus Tom Cairney and Neeskens Kebano are on the treatment table.

Leeds United are expected to be without Rodrigo Moreno, Adam Forshaw, Archie Gray, Luis Sinisterra, and Stuart Dallas due to injury. They also have doubts over the fitness of Maximilian Wöber and Marc Roca.

When two Premier League teams meet in the round of 16 of the FA Cup, it is often difficult to predict the outcome. Home advantage could be the deciding factor in this game and Fulham could come out on top, winning by a single goal margin.
