Wolverhampton vs. Fulham: Match Prediction
Vitor Pereira's side has significantly improved over the past month. The team faced a tough schedule, meeting four contenders for the Champions League spots. They managed two victories, while losing to two Premier League leaders by just one goal. It is highly likely that Wolverhampton will not lose to a mid-table opponent.
Moreover, the hosts have a good record against Fulham. In their last nine Premier League meetings, Wolverhampton has only lost once, securing five wins and three draws. It's worth noting that the Londoners have been highly inconsistent this season, performing better against stronger opponents but often dropping points against lower-ranked teams.
My prediction – "Wolverhampton to win or draw"
* The starting lineup for each team is based on their previous match in this tournament.
