As fans in England begin their recovery rom a rather timid international break, all thanks to England, the Premier League rolls back onto our tv screens to re-light our sporting hearts.
With this Premier League weekend offering up all sorts of treats for all to enjoy, we’ve selected a clash between two sides looking to further themselves in distance from the business end of the standings into the comfort as mid-table, as Fulham play hosts to Wolves.
Here, we will have a quick look at the state of play to come at Craven Cottage on Monday, to keep you well-informed ahead of your betting selections.
Fulham
Many would be forgiven for assuming Fulham would have a better time in the Premier League than they are at the moment, given their surprising successes in their last campaign.
Finishing 10th in 22/23, the West London side currently dwindles in 15th, yet a comforting seven points adrift of the drop zone, resolving any relegation fears but frustrating fans in equal measures as they sit bottom of the sides not considered relegation candidates.
With star striker Alexsandr Mitrovic chasing the pound signs in Saudi Arabia as part of a mass exodus of European talent, the lack of a 14-goal frontman is being felt, with the team having scored the joint-second-least goals in the Premier League, just one more than the league-lowest Burnley on 10, leaving them level with Luton Town.
A patchy recent form highlights the inconsistencies in their game, boasting just a single win in their last six in the top flight, with that going by way of a 3-1 win over struggling Sheffield United, only their third win from 12 in the league this season.
While thoughts of the drop are all but cast from their minds, given the trials and tribulations suffered as of present by Burnley, Luton, and Sheffield United, the wish to build on a successful first season back amongst England’s very best is not coming to fruition as of yet.
Wolves
A team boasting more joyous recent form would be their visitors for the afternoon, Wolves, who have started to take great shape in a campaign initially wrought with relegation fears, picking up a vital three wins from their last six, including stunning shocks against title contenders Manchester City and Tottenham, to edge themselves far in front of the chasing pack in 12th.
With Hee-Chang Hwang leading the way with six goals to his name this season and tricky winger Pedro Neto leading the whole league with his seven assists, the team in famous Old Gold are having a far better time in terms of pre-season expectation matching than their hosts on Saturday.
Head to Head
The team likely to be encouraged the most by past affairs will be Wolves, who have not lost against Fulham in any competition for over five years, stretching back to their time together in the Championship. In the six Premier League games the two have squared off in since then, Wolves have taken the points on three occasions, with the others ending in draws.

Based on our highlighted statistics below, this game is not one for the football purists amongst you. Unders seem to be the way to go, hence we are favouring a 1-0 win for visitors Wolves.
Our Betting Tip for Today: Fulham 0-1 Wolves
Wolves to hunt for three points
With two of Wolves’ four wins coming away from home this season, they will be relishing their recent form and Fulham’s lack thereof to snatch the points in London.
Having conceded twice as many goals as they have put away so far in this Premier League addition, Fulham have looked shaky at the back and bereft of ideas in attack. Wolves, though starting slowly this season, have looked anything but, with Matheus Cunha creating more chances in the last five games than anyone outside the top six and Craig Dawson having provided position-defying defensive contributions.
With Fulham lacking in consistency and confidence and Wolves growing ever-so in just that, we back the men from the West Midlands to bring the points back with them from West London, representing good value at 2/1.
