THE PREDICTION
Fulham suffered a second successive home Premier League loss last weekend after going down 0-3 to runaway league leaders Man City. Scott Parker's side currently remain in the relegation zone, but have a great opportunity to bounce back here against Leeds Utd at Craven Cottage, who have suffered defeat in their last three Premier League games, shipping seven goals over the course of those matches. Whilst Fulham have proven impressive defensively under Parker over the course of the season, they may look to approach this game a little more aggressively going forward, knowing that Leeds have shown fragility at the back on their travels recently. However, Marcelo Bielsa's men will prove a huge threat on the counter attack and are likely to punish the hosts if given space in behind the Fulham backline. The reverse fixture between these two saw a thrilling encounter finish 4-3 to Leeds at Elland Road and whilst we may not see a match that exhilarating, over 2.5 goals scored over the course of 90 minutes in this one is well worth considering, regardless of who comes out on top.
