The big match in the English Championship this weekend sees West Brom travel to Craven Cottage for a clash against Fulham. Separated by just a point, both teams are likely serve up a closely fought encounter but the Cottagers are almost unstoppable at home and should have the edge here.
Fulham only recently moved into second place, leapfrogging West Brom in the Championship table. They will be keen to keep the Baggies at bay and hold on to the second automatic promotion spot.
Led by the impressive Aleksandar Mitrovic who has 15 goals already this season, Fulham are the leading scorers in the Championship. That attacking strenght was on full display last time out as they thumped Nottingham Forest 4-0 for their fourth win in their last five Championship matches.
Craven Cottage has been a good hunting ground for Fulham, who have suffered just one defeat on home soil this season. Marco Silva’s men have won five of their last six matches on their own turf and claimed a 2-0 victory over Cardiff City in their previous fixture in front of their fans.
West Brom have been hit by bouts of inconsistency in recent weeks which has seen them drop to third on the table. They travel to Fulham off the back of two wins and two defeats from their last four Championship matches.
Sitting just one point behind Fulham, West Brom will be keen to reclaim their spot in the automatic promotion places. Manager Valerien Ismael will look to take some confidence from the 3-0 victory over Bristol City in their previous Championship fixture.
While West Brom have been one of the best teams in the Championship this season, their form on their travels has been poor. They have lost their last two away matches and were beaten 2-1 by struggling Swansea City in their previous fixture on the road.
