Wolverhampton vs. Fulham: Match Prediction
Vítor Pereira's side has significantly improved over the past month. They faced a tough schedule with matches against four Champions League contenders. Despite this, they secured two victories and lost to two league leaders by just one goal. It's highly likely that Wolverhampton will avoid defeat against a mid-table opponent.
Additionally, the hosts have a good record against Fulham. In their last nine Premier League encounters, Wolverhampton has lost only once, winning five times and drawing three. It's worth noting that Fulham has been highly inconsistent this season, performing better against strong opponents while often dropping points against lower-ranked teams.
My prediction: "Wolverhampton to win or draw"
