Stadium: Amex Stadium
Brighton and Fulham have both been huge success stories this season and we’re expecting a cracking contest when they meet at Amex Stadium.
The Cottagers shaded an entertaining encounter 2-1 in London at the end of August, but a switch in venue may see the roles reversed.
Let’s go with 23/10 for a home win and both teams to score as our first Brighton vs Fulham prediction.
Brighton were rated a touch unfortunate not to win at Crystal Palace last weekend, when wrongly denied a first-half goal by VAR.
Albion did forge ahead through Solly March on 66 minutes but James Tomkins equalised following a mistake by keeper Robert Sanchez.
That was a great result for our match preview, giving us a 7/1 correct score pay-out among three successful selections.
But the Seagulls will have been frustrated not to make more of having 74 per cent of possession, leading 17-6 in attempts on goal and 7-1 for shots on target.
Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi said: “We are playing fantastic football. I think it was one of the best games with my time.
“We made a lot of mistakes when we had the chances to score but we have to be clear to analyse this game.
“We can be frustrated but we have to be proud. We have to be happy because like this we can fight for a place in Europe. If we continue like this, we can fight.”
Albion have won their last three home matches, including league and FA Cup victories over Liverpool.
Kaoru Mitoma has earned plenty of plaudits for his recent form, but club stalwart March is also going well with five goals in nine appearances.
We like 7/2 for the Eastbourne-born 28-year-old to score in a home victory from the Brighton vs Fulham odds.
Last Brighton line-up: Sanchez, Webster, Dunk, Estupinan, Veltman, March, Mac Allister, Gross, Mitoma, Caicedo, Undav.
Fulham are only below their opponents on goal difference following a 2-0 home win over Nottingham Forest, although they have played twice more.
A fizzing drive by Willian opened the scoring after 17 minutes and substitute Manor Solomon wrapped up the victory late on.
In between, the Cottagers struck the woodwork three times in a lively display which should have produced a more convincing scoreline.
There is a slight concern that talismanic front man Aleksandar Mitrovic has gone six games without a goal, but Marco Silva wants others to step up.
“We have to share goals,” said Silva. “We don’t have just a player to score goals. If you look to the past, my wingers score goals.
“They have to arrive in certain areas to score goals. Our midfield has to score. We have to share goals, it’s not just on the strikers who score.
“There were one or two moments where we lost the ball and shouldn’t have. It gave them some dangerous moments, one great save from Bernd (Leno).
“But until then, we had created so many chances to punish them and to kill the game.”
Fulham have picked up a healthy 14 points on the road this term but do tend to come up short when visiting better teams.
So far, they have travelled to face four of the six sides above them in the table and have tasted defeat every time.
They were only beaten by one goal on each occasion, though, and three of those losses were by a 2-1 scoreline.
Let’s add 29/4 for that exact result to come up again to our Brighton vs Fulham betting tips.
Last Fulham line-up: Leno, Tete, Ream, Diop, Robinson, Reed, Decordova-Reid, Pereira, Willian, Palhinha, Mitrovic.
