Command Analysis

Fulham

Fulham started their League Cup campaign in the Round of 64. The Cottagers easily outplayed Birmingham (2:0).

Fulham entered the season with a new head coach: in the summer,Marco da Silva became the manager. The Cottagers retained the main squad and found the funds to strengthen the team: Harry Wilson from Liverpool (14 mln) and Rodrigo Muniz (8 mln) moved to Fulham.

After eight rounds of the Championship, the Londoners have five victories and one draw. They occupy second place in the table with 16 points.

Kongolo, Tete, and Cairneywon't be able to play today.

Leeds United

Leeds haven't found their game yet. After five rounds of the Premier League, they have three points and sit in 17th place in the table. Last Friday, the Peacocks got an away draw with Newcastle (1:1). The defense hasn't been very reliable: Leeds have conceded more than two goals per game on average.

The Whites were off to a good start in the League Cup: they won a landslide victory over Crew Alexandria (3:0).

Forshaw, Struijk, Llorente, and Koch were ruled out of this fixture.

Tip and bets

TipFulham to pass

1.95

The opponents are equal: Fulham have strengthened the squad and showed interesting football at the start of the tournament, while Leeds have great potential, even though they haven't won in the Premier League this season. We think that a single mistake can decide the result of this fixture, or maybe even a penalty shootout. We will bet on the hosts, who have looked slightly more interesting so far.
