Bournemouth 11/8 to beat Fulham in Saturdays Premier League matchup

Competition: Premier League

Market: Bournemouth win

Odds: 11/8 @ Bet 365

Looking to continue their very impressive start to the new Premier League season, Bournemouth will travel to Craven Cottage on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Fulham may have impressed on route to winning last years Championship play-off final, it has been a tricky start for the Cottagers. In their first nine games, the hosts have recorded just one win, two draws and six defeats, scoring 11 and conceding 25 in return, no team in the Premier League holds a worse defensive record. With a points tally of five out of a possible 39, Fulham have now slipped into the relegation zone. As for their recent run of form, the Whites have now lost their last three outings on the bounce and have conceded 12 in that losing run.

As for the visitors, after securing a top half finish last season, Bournemouth have pushed on and a shock European push could be on the cards. In their opening nine games, the Cherries have won five, drawn two and lost just twice, scoring 16 and conceding 12 in return. With 17 points on the board, Bournemouth find themselves sat sixth in the table and four points adrift of jumping into the top four. As for their recent form, Saturday’s visitors are now unbeaten in their last four matches in all competitions and have kept a clean sheet in their last two on the bounce.
