Fulham host Tottenham in the English Premier League on Monday night and we take a look at the game from a betting angle.
FULHAM
Fulham are currently 7th on the table and saw a 4 match winning streak ended when they went down 1-0 on the road to Newcastle last time out. Their last home game was a 2-1 victory over Chelsea and they have won 5, drawn 3 and lost 2 of their 10 home games this season.
Digging into Fulham’s goal stats, 16 of their 20 matches have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers and this 80% strike rate is the highest in the Division. That Strike rate for overs backers stretches to 90% if you only focus on Fulham home games.
TOTTENHAM
Tottenham are currently 5th on the table, 2 points ahead of Fulham. They have lost 3 of their last 4 matches including going down 4-2 away at Manchester City last time out, a game where they led 2-0 at one point.
Tottenham have won 4, drawn 3 and lost 3 of their 10 away games and their Premier League matches averaged 3.5 goals each with 12 of the 20 games reaching the 3 goal mark. 60% of the Tottenham away games have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers including their last 4 matches which have had a total of 19 goals in them.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
Tottenham beat Fulham 2-1 at home in the reverse fixture and last season they edged this fixture 1-0. 6 of the last 7 head-to-heads between the sides have seen both teams find the back of the net.

Fulham 9/4
Draw 11/4
Tottenham 23/20
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 13/8
This price is tempting given the recent run of Tottenham away matches which have had at least 4 goals in them.
Suggested Bet: Fulham win at 9/4
Both of these sides are coming off tough fixtures which they lost, but if we go into the form before that, I feel that Fulham were flying high and they look over-priced for a victory here.
Suggested Bet: Correct Score 3-1 at 22/1
A speculative play this, but I am looking for over 3.5 goals and both teams to find the net which leads me to the 3-1 Fulham victory.
