West Ham vs Fulham prediction
West Ham are flying in the Championship at the moment and do pose a huge threat against Fulham, who are not doing well at all in the Premier League, as expected.
They got rid of a couple of key players and haven't really looked like they can make a push for progress this season, if anything they seem destined for a bit of a relegation scrap barring a turnaround in form.
Fulham's games haven't been awful though, only losing by a one goal margin in their losses to Palace, Sunderland and Chelsea, before drawing 0-0 with Liverpool.
With two 3-2 losses already in the Premier League this season there are some question marks about their defence and losing games in the second half.
West Ham vs Fulham betting tips
West Ham to win second half
Palace beat Fulham 3-2 earlier this month despite being 2-1 down at half time, the Cottagers then conceded two more goals in the second half.
Chelsea went all out to beat Fulham in the opener of the season in August, going 2-1 up in the first half and quickly getting another in the second.
However, Fulham aren't discounted from putting in a good shift in the first again, but do keep conceding in both halves, which is another bigger issue that could be added to the bet builder, buildabets and combinations.
Player bets
There could be some rotations in the squads around their individual league campaigns which suggests there's going to be some decent returns on player bets.
Rodrigo Muniz is set to start for Fulham and with a goal in the EFL Cup already, should be on target at least on Tuesday evening.
He also hit two shots on target in Fulham's last EFL Cup clash which makes him a great addition for a shot on target at a short price.
If anything, with two 3-2 losses in Fulham games there could well be plenty of goals in this one too, especially as West Ham have recently lit a fire underneath themselves, scoring as many as six on Friday night against Wrexham.
Jarrod Bowen surely gets amongst the goals again too - he's scored four and assisted three in just seven appearances in the Championship, thriving just as many thought he would.
The Hammers main man is used to facing Premier League opposition and this Fulham side could be susceptible to their confidence and tenacity.
He's scored one in each of his last two appearances in this competition as well, absolutely flying for the club he insisted on staying at.
