I’m not sure what to make of Fulham this season. They seem to put in a hell of a lot of work, but dont seem to be getting the results. They were humiliated at Old Trafford on the opening day, losing 5-1, while they were lucky to draw 1-1 with Bolton, scoring a penalty in the final few minutes. Sheffield Utd came back to earth with a bump after their good 1-1 draw with Liverpool. They lost 2-0 on Wednesday night away to Spurs, and in all honesty could have lost by alot more.

This is a tough game to predict betting wise. Home form is going to be very important for both sides this season, and I’m sure Fulham boss Chris Coleman will have pointed out this game as a must win. Similarly, Blades boss Neil Warnock will feel Fulham are a side where they can grab a point or two.

For this game however, I’m going for home win, simply because Fulham boss Chris Coleman will know the importance of taking three points from this game. Its going to be a tough season for the Cottagers, and games like these are very important, against the lower sides. They have a pretty good strike force, with Collins John, Brian BcBride, Boa Morte, and Helguson, and these should provide enough options to cause Sheffield alot of problems. Even though they could only draw 1-1 with Bolton on Wednesday night, Fulham did show good character and battling qualities, which is why I think they will grind out a narrow win here today. Go for the Fulham home win @10/11 with Coral.
