Prediction: 2-1
Stoke City
Fulham will look to retain top position in the standings when they take on Stoke City at their Craven Cottage on Saturday afternoon. The Cottagers are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. A man to watch in the home team will be Aleksandar Mitrovic, who has already found his goal-scoring touch. Both Tim Ream and Kenny Tete, who limped off with injuries in the 2-0 win over Hull City, are likely to miss the Stoke game.
The Potters, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Swansea City and Nottingham Forest, but Fulham are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the visitors than their previous rivals. All Campbell, Forrester, and Oakley-Boothe are sidelined with injuries, and given Fulham’s flying start to the season, home win should definitely be considered.
