Prediction: 2-2
West Ham
There will be fireworks when Fulham and West Ham United go head to head at Craven Cottage in what is expected to be a close local derby. The start of the season has been a mixed bag for Fulham, with the team losing to Mand Utd, beating Leicester City, while sharing the spoils with Ipswich Town. A man to watch in the home team will be pacey winger Adama Traore, who has been producing excellent displays of late, while Marco Silva has no fresh injury worries.
The Hammers, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to Man City. As West Ham are eager to get back on course as soon as possible, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Defender Aaron Cresswell remains in the recovery room, but he should be the only absentee in the away team. Goalkeeper Alphonse Areola has overcome his minor injury.
Highlighted Player (Alex Iwobi):
Alex Iwobi is one of the most talented African footballers. The Nigerian football player was born in Lagos on May 3, 1996, but he moved to Arsenal at the age of 8. In 2015 he made his first-team debut for the Gunners, starting in a 3-0 loss to Sheffield Wednesday in the League Cup.

Highlighted Team (West Ham):
West Ham United are an English football club based in East London. The club was founded in 1895 and it has to be noted that the club’s name was Thames Ironworks back then. The Hammers were playing their home games at Upton Park from 1904 until 2016, when they moved to the Stadium at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
West Ham have won three FA Cup trophies (1964, 1975 and 1980) and they were runners-up in 1923 and 2006. The capital club finished the 1985/1986 England first division campaign in third place in the standings and that is the club’s highest placing in the top flight. West Ham United have strong rivalries with fellow London clubs, but Tottenham Hotspur are considered the club’s main rivals.
A number of top-class players were part of West Ham in the past and the likes of Joe Cole, Carlos Tevez, Paolo Di Canio, Paul Ince, Julian Dicks, Shaka Hislop, Michael Carrick and Slaven Bilic are some of them.
