Fulham vs Leicester: Premier League Prediction Match Details
Fulham is scheduled to host Leicester City in the second round of the 2023–24 Premier League at Craven Cottage in London on Saturday afternoon. The match promises to be interesting as both teams are seeking their first win of the new season.
Fulham Preview & Form
Fulham began their new Premier League campaign with a dramatic 1-0 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford. Although the Red Devils dominated the game and had better possession, the Cottagers failed to convert their chances in the game, which could have earned them at least a point in the match.
Manager Marco Silva will aim for his side to improve this form in front of their supporting crowd against newly promoted Leicester City in their first home appearance of the season. However, their home form towards the end of the 2022–23 season will be a concern for their fans, as they suffered three home defeats in their last four league matches while scoring only twice.
Leicester Preview & Form
Newly promoted Leicester City began their return to top-flight football with a thrilling 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur on Monday night on their home soil. Despite Tottenham’s dominance in the match, the Foxes fought back from being a goal down to rescue a draw in the match, with Jamie Vardy announcing his goal-scoring return in the 57th minute of the match at the King Power Stadium.
Leicester City manager Steve Cooper will hope his side, in his second game in charge, can build on their first game and get a win in their second match. It is worth noting that the Foxes have won only one of their seven previous encounters with Fulham at Craven Cottage.
