Wolves v Fulham Betting Tips [13 August 2022]

Fulham will be traveling to the west Midlands top take on Wolverhampton Wanderers in their second game of the season in the Premier League. Both these teams will feel dissatisfied by their opening results, Fulham having led twice but drawn with Liverpool and Wolves having led but lost 2-1 to Leeds United. Hosts Wolves have failed to live up to the promise they showed last season and going into this game, they failed to register a win in their last four matches. While defence was their strongest department earlier last season, they’ve struggled to replicate the same in the recent matches, conceding two goals in two of their last four matches while managing just one clean sheet in five. Three of Wolves’ last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Fulham gave a good account of themselves in their opening game, twice leading against Liverpool in a game that ended 2-2. That was their fourth straight game without a clean sheet; they have one clean sheet in five matches, and three times in the last five, they have scored two or more goals. Three of Fulham’s last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and Aleksandr Mitrovic, who scored the two goals, will be key for them again here. Facing Wolves hasn’t really been great for Fulham; they have lost in each of their last three meetings with Wolves, and have just one win in their last six meetings. In the last three meetings with Wolves, Fulham have failed to score, and went on to lose.

Fulham are getting to settle back in the Premier League and they did well against Liverpool. However, they still showed cracks in defence. Though they have scored in each of their last five matches, they’ve conceded in each of their last four. Wolves have also had the same issues defensively; they have no clean sheet in the last four, but both teams have scored in the four. With this in mind, and as both teams try to settle in the season, we will back them both to score.
