Can Fulham Extend Unbeaten Home Run?

Only Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers have left Craven Cottage with maximum points this season. However, Marco Silva’s men have drawn four home matches in a row.

Fulham are going okay in the Premier League and are in no danger of going down. The London side sit ninth, collecting 30 points from 20 games. They have won seven, drawn nine, and lost just four.

Watford are pushing for promotion from the Championship, though Tom Cleverley’s side have hit a rough patch of form. The Hornets head to London having lost four of their last five in the second tier.

Fulham are looking to turn home draws into wins, starting with Thursday’s cup tie against Championship opposition. The top-tier side have not won at home in over a month.

Recent Fulham vs Watford United Head-to-Head Meetings

This will be the first meeting since they clashed in the Premier League in 2019. The Hornets beat the Cottagers 4-1 at Vicarage Road, and the reverse game in west London ended in a 1-1 draw.

Watford have a good record in this fixture, winning three and drawing three of the last six. Fulham’s last victory came in an FA Cup replay at the Cottage way back in January 2005.

Fulham vs Watford Betting Tips & Predictions

Almost 20 years have passed since Fulham last got the better of Watford, but we can see the Premier League team winning this cup tie. You can get 1.43 for the Whites to win -1.

Fulham have scored two goals in their last two games at Craven Cottage. Why not back the hosts to net twice in a 2-0 win (6.25) on Thursday?
