Betting tips
AFC Bournemouth’s Dominic Solanke is enjoying a fine run of form in front of goal and his record against Fulham is an excellent one. Solanke has scored in each of Bournemouth’s last three matches against Fulham and his return of 13 league goals this season is bettered only by Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah. Solanke is excellent value at 8/5 to score at any time at Craven Cottage whilst the 24/5 on offer for him to score first is also worth some real consideration.
The last two matches between Fulham and AFC Bournemouth to be played at Craven Cottage have ended even. Combine this with the fact that both clubs drew their most recent league fixtures and everything is pointing towards a draw on Saturday afternoon. Our in-house tipster has backed a stalemate at Craven Cottage, taking on Mark Goldbridge & Ben Foster as part of our 'Tips Challenge' . You can back the draw at 5/2. There has not been a goalless draw in this fixture since August 1998, both teams to score and the match to end in a draw offers slightly better odds at 3/1.
No player has picked up more bookings in the Premier League this season than Joao Palhinha and the Fulham midfielder is 7/5 to be carded on Saturday.
