Explore Coral's detailed preview for West Ham vs Fulham in the Premier League. Stats, odds, predictions, and lineups for the 15:00 GMT match.

West Ham will be looking to bounce back after a string of disappointing results, including a heavy defeat to Manchester City. With a predicted lineup that includes key players like Lucas Paqueta and Jarrod Bowen, they have the potential to cause problems for Fulham's defence. However, their recent form suggests a lack of confidence, which could hinder their performance.
Fulham, on the other hand, have shown more consistency in their recent matches, securing three wins in their last five games. Their predicted lineup remains strong despite several injuries, with players like Harry Wilson and Sander Berge likely to play crucial roles. Given their better form and West Ham's struggles, Fulham might have the edge in this encounter.
West Ham's recent form has been poor, with three losses and two draws in their last five matches. The heavy defeat against Manchester City and the loss to Aston Villa at home will have dented their confidence. They will need to find a way to regain momentum if they are to perform well against Fulham.

West Ham are expected to line up in a 4-3-1-2 formation, with Lucas Paqueta playing just behind the strikers Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville. This setup should allow them to control the midfield and create scoring opportunities through Paqueta's creativity.
Predicted lineup: Leno (GK), Tete (DF), Andersen (DF), Cuenca (DF), Robinson (DF), Lukic (MF), Berge (MF), Wilson (MF), Smith Rowe (MF), Kevin (MF), Jimenez (AT)
Fulham are likely to use a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Emile Smith Rowe playing just behind the lone striker Raul Jimenez. This formation should provide a solid defensive base while allowing Kevin and Harry Wilson to exploit spaces and create chances for Jimenez.
