SlipsTips shares a Bet Builder ahead of Fulham's fixture with Nottingham Forest in the English Championship on Tuesday night.

Fulham vs Nottingham Forest (Tuesday, 19:45)

One of the standout fixtures from the latest batch of English Championship matches takes place at Craven Cottage on Tuesday night, as Fulham face Nottingham Forest.

Marco Silva’s men could clinch the second tier title with a victory here, while the visitors will be aiming to close the gap on second-placed Bournemouth whom they trail by five points.

Given that both sides are fine fettle, there isn't a huge amount of appeal in the 1×2 market here, but backing each team to hit 3+ corners and each team to receive 10+ booking points looks like a nice alternative at even-money (1/1) with SkyBet.

Unsurprisingly, high-flying Fulham have proven prominent in the corner rankings this term, averaging a league-high 6.26 corners per-game, a tally that increases to a lofty 7.05 when operating at their West London headquarters.

Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, are earning a healthy 5.50 flag kicks per 90 minutes this term, with the Tricky Trees hitting the 3+ corner line in 11 of their last 13 league games.

With that in mind, coupled with the likelihood of a decent degree of goalmouth action here, three corners apiece doesn't look like too much to ask of two clubs in fine form.

To round off the Bet Builder I'm going with each side to receive 10+ booking points in what should be a closely-fought battle between two tightly matched teams.

League leaders Fulham are averaging 1.5 yellow cards per game in the Championship this season, while Steve Cooper's crew are seeing 1.95 cautions per 90 minutes on average.

What's more, referee Josh Smith is dishing out a shade under four cards per-game in tier two this term, with the EFL whistler awarding both sides at least one booking in a sizeable 19 of the 22 English Championship fixtures he has taken charge of this season so far.

With all things considered, coupled with the fact the aforementioned formula would have paid out in eight of Fulham’s last nine league games, the evens (SkyBet) on each team to hit 3+ corners and each team to receive 10+ booking points makes plenty of appeal given that we have all the necessary ingredients required for an action-packed contest in the capital.
