Fulham to bounce back to winning ways
Look, Fulham have had some bad results throughout the course of this campaign and their 1-1 draw with Barnsley goes down as a minor bump in the road. The Cottagers are unquestionably the best side in the league though and visiting a side like West Brom who have to try and win the game to keep very feint top six ambitions alive with suit Fulham down to the ground. The league leaders had won four on the spin before that draw with the Tykes too; West Brom have lost three of their last five.
Goals for both teams
After a rather frustrating start to life at West Brom, Steve Bruce's side are finally starting to score goals with four in their last two games combined. Fulham haven't exactly been watertight either with goals conceded in each of their last two and in three of their past five outings. Obviously, the Cottagers have no issues scoring goals with 90 scored in their 36 games to date in the league. All that combines into a both teams to score bet and we are saying ‘yes'.
