West Ham United will travel to West London to face Fulham at Craven Cottage in the second London derby of the season on Saturday. The Cottagers have remained unbeaten in their last two encounters with the Hammers
Fulham Preview & Form
Fulham’s performance in the new season has been in mixed form, as the Cottagers have only managed to pick up four points from their opening three games. Fulham started the season with a 1-0 defeat away to Manchester United, and in their second game, the Cottagers got their first win of the season by defeating Leicester at their home stadium. However, before the international break, Fulham shared spills with newly promoted boys Ipswich on the road, with the match ending 1-1.
Manager Marco Silva will hope his side can make it back-to-back new Premier League season home wins against the Hammers they defeated 5-0 last season at the Craven Cottage Stadium.
West Ham United Preview & Form
West Ham United, under new boss Lopetegui, have managed to win only one match since the start of the new Premier League season. The Hammers were defeated 2-1 in the opening Premier League match at the London Stadium. In their second game, they bounce back with an impressive 2-0 away derby win over Crystal Palace in their second-round fixture at Selhurst Park. However, before the international break, the Hammers were crushed 3-1 in the face of their supporting crowd by defending champion Manchester City, with Erling Haalands scoring a hattrick in the match. Despite suffering a defeat against City, the Hammers produced some promising attacking displays in the match.
Julen Lopetegui will be hoping his side can boost their confidence entering into their clash as the Hammers had a poor run of on-the-road form towards the end of last season in the league.
