West Ham United vs Fulham Preview

West Ham United will be looking to continue their pursuit of a European place when they welcome Fulham in this London Derby.

The Hammers are currently 10^th in the league table after a series of inconsistent performances but their fans believe that their team has enough to get them into a European place by the end of the season.

Fulham are at risk of being relegated back to the Championship as their struggle in the English top tier continues.

The Cottagers are currently 8 points from safety and there are just 12 games left to play for this season.

For Fulham to avoid relegation this season, they would have to start winning games and that is something their fans will be expecting to start from this match.

They have named Claudio Ranieri as their new boss, but the results have remained largely the same.

Initially we all thought that they would get better as the season progresses, but almost nothing has changed so far.

Felipe Anderson has impressed for the Hammers this season with 8 goals already to his name.

He is certainly going to keep improving as the season goes on and could be the difference here.

Bookmakers have priced West Ham up as slight odds-on favourites to get the job done in this London Derby.

Goal markets point to a lively game as over 2.5 goals is currently trading odds-on while Marko Arnautovic, Andy Carroll and Javier Hernandez will be searching for the first goal as they head the first goalscorer market.
