Our prediction for this Championship match:
All eyes will be on Vitality Stadium when Bournemouth and Fulham square off against each other in the Championship derby. The Cottagers sealed their Premier League return with a routine 3-0 win over Preston, but they surely want to put icing on the cake on a very successful season. Aleksandar Mitrovic, who scored a brace in Tuesday’s clash, will be the man to watch in the away team, while all Muniz Rodrigo, Seri, and Reid are pushing for a start.
The Cherries, on the other hand, aim to build on a 3-0 win over Coventry City. Bournemouth have two games in hand, meaning that a win over Fulham would see them almost certainly secure automatic promotion. Since Fulham have already got their job done, we believe that punters from all four corners of the world can find value in betting on the home team. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Highlighted Player (Robbie Brady):
Robbie Brady is an Irish footballer who plays for Norwich City as a winger, but he is capable of playing at left back as well. Brady began his youth career at St. Kevin’s Boys, where he was spotted by Manchester United scouts. In 2008 he joined the Old Trafford outfit at age 16.
He played for Manchester United U-18 team, but he did not make his debut for the senior team. The Irish footballer played for Hull City on loan in the 2011/2012 and the 2012/2013 Championship campaigns and in January, 2013 he signed a permanent deal with the Tigers for an undisclosed fee. Robbie Brady made his Republic of Ireland debut on 8 September, 2012, in a 4-1 win over Oman and it has to be noted that he scored one goal and provided two assists for his teammates in the victory over the Asian team.
He represented the Boys in Green at the 2016 European Championship finals and he scored the winner against Italy that helped the team make it to the knockout stages of the showpiece tournament.
Highlighted Team (Fulham):
Fulham are a club from London that play in the Premier League. The capital club dropped to the English second tier at the end of the 2013/2014 Premier League campaign after failing to impress in the elite competition, but managed to return in season 2018/2019.
Fulham were founded in 1879 and they play their home matches at Craven Cottage. Fulham are the oldest-established club from the English capital to have played in the top flight.
Fulham finished the 2008/2009 Premier League campaign in seventh place in the standings and that is considered the team’s biggest success, speaking of their participation in the Premier League.
The Cottagers played in the Europa League twice and they did well to reach the FA Cup final in 1975, but they were beaten by their local rivals West Ham United in the title game (0-2). Chelsea are regarded as Fulham’s bitter rivals as well and the two teams take on each other in the North London derby.
