Brighton & Hove Albion and Fulham face off in the Premier League at the Amex Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Seagulls have hit a rich vein of form of late, triumphing in each of their last four top flight matches, the most recent of which was a 2-1 win over Bournemouth.
That quartet of victories has put Fabian Hurzeler’s eighth-placed side firmly in the mix for a top-four finish.
Albion kept the feelgood factor flowing by progressing to the FA Cup quarter-finals with a 2-1 win via extra-time to eliminate Newcastle last Sunday.
As for Fulham, they are just one point and one place behind Brighton in the Premier League table after claiming a 2-1 win away at Wolves last midweek.
Marco Silva’s men have since gone to Old Trafford and knocked Manchester United out of the FA Cup thanks to a penalty shootout win.
How the bookies view it: Seagulls set for three points
Brighton are 10/11 favourites on Boylesports to claim what would be a third Premier League home win on the bounce.
Despite winning each of their last three Premier League away games, Fulham arrive at the Amex as 13/5 (Boylesports) outsiders, while a share of the south coast spoils is also considered unlikely at 5/2 (Boylesports).
Head to head: History favours Fulham
Fulham have fared well in this fixture over the years, avoiding defeat in each of the nine Premier League meetings between the pair. Silva’s side ran out 3-1 winners in this season’s reverse fixture and the same scoreline on Saturday is trading at a towering 25/1 on Boylesports.
Players to watch: Pedro to keep on purring?
With two goals and two assists across his last three appearances for Brighton in all competitions, Joao Pedro is an eye-catching 13/10 (UniBet) to register another goal involvement this weekend.
Sander Berge has been cautioned in each of Fulham's last two Premier League matches, making the Norwegian an attractive option to go into the book at the Amex at 10/3 on Boylesports.
Predicted line-ups
Kaoru Mitoma looks set for a spell on the sidelines after coming off against Newcastle with a knee injury last Sunday, while teammate Tariq Lamptey is suspended after being sent off at St James’ Park.
Fulham boss Silva will be forced into at least one change this weekend, as midfielder Sasa Lukic will start a two-match ban due to yellow card accumulation.
Brighton: Verbruggen; Hinshelwood, Webster, Van Hecke, Estupinan; Baleba, Ayari; Minteh, Rutter, Pedro; Welbeck
Fulham: Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Berge, Reed; Traore, Pereira, Iwobi; Muniz
Anything else catch the eye?
With both teams to score a touch too short to side with as a single, I’ll dip into the Bet Builder feature on Boylesports and add in over 7.5 corners to bolster the odds up to even-money.
BTTS has banked in nine of Brighton’s 13 Premier League home games this season and likewise in nine of Fulham's 13 top flight road trips to date.
As for the corners angle, both teams' Premier League fixtures this season are averaging north of 10 flag kicks per 90.
It's also worth noting that this Bet Builder would have paid out in December’s reverse fixture between the pair, and that only adds to the appeal of supporting the same formula on Saturday.
