West Ham United vs Fulham prediction
We could be in for a bad-tempered affair here between East London and West London. West Ham may be in the Championship right now but their squad remains of Premier League standard. Jarrod Bowen for example, remains in the Hammers squad and could have a big part to play against Fulham, who most recently held Liverpool to a goalless draw at Anfield.
The Cottagers made light work of AFC Wimbledon in round two but this will be a far sterner challenge. West Ham will pose a significant attacking threat and are averaging four goals scored across each of their last four games. With that in mind, we may be in for a thriller and backing both teams to score appears a smart move.
West Ham United vs Fulham tip: Both teams to score
