Bournemouth vs Fulham - 01/04/2023
4248
Fulham sunk to ninth in the Premier League table before the March international break. The Cottagers are still only three points off sixth-place Liverpool.
On Saturday, Fulham will travel to the south coast to play 19th-place Bournemouth. The Cherries are one point off safety going into the weekend. A win over Fulham could send Bournemouth back out of the bottom three.
The relegation battle is one of the most competitive in the Premier League era. Just four points separate 12th-place Crystal Palace and 20th-place Southampton.
Bournemouth went unbeaten in five of their last six games against Fulham in all competitions. Earlier this season, the teams drew 2-2 in their Premier League fixture.
It was a back-and-forth affair with Dominic Solanke opening the scoring after two minutes. Fulham’s Issa Diop equalised on 22 minutes, but Bournemouth regained the lead seven minutes later courtesy of Jefferson Lerma. Fulham’s Aleksandar Mitrovic scored in the 52nd minute.
Fulham are on a two-game losing streak in the league. They took just eight points from the last six games. Mitrovic hasn’t scored in his last six league games. Fulham were knocked out of the FA Cup before the international break. The team can now focus on the league once more.
The Cottagers have been up and down on the road with five wins, two draws, and six defeats. They have a goal difference of zero on the road.
Bournemouth picked up seven points from the last six games. The Cherries picked up some positive results, including a 1-0 win over Liverpool at Dean Court.
Bournemouth were outscored 11-6 across the last six matches. They went unbeaten in four of their last six home matches.
Manager Gary O’Neil has three players on the injury list going into the match. Illia Zabarnyi is a doubt following an ankle injury. Marcus Tavernier has a thigh problem and may sit out the game. Junior Stanislas is a major doubt following an injury.
Fulham manager Marco Silva will be without Neeskens Kebano following a calf injury. Mitrovic and Willian are suspended for the match, limiting Silva’s forward options. Shane Duffy is unlikely to play due to a leg injury. Layvin Kurzawa is out with an MCL injury.
Fulham are on a two-game losing streak in the league. However, coming off the international break should see the Cottagers win away against Bournemouth. The Cherries should succumb to the pressure of trying to win at home. The Cottagers should post a 3-1 victory on the road.
