Fulham host West Ham at Craven Cottage on 4 March 2026 in a London clash that brings together two sides with improving momentum, particularly in attack.
Fulham have rediscovered their rhythm after a brief slump. Following three consecutive defeats, they responded with three straight victories in all competitions. Their most recent success came with a 2-1 home win against Tottenham, a result that helped them return to the top half of the Premier League table. Craven Cottage has recently been a productive venue for the Cottagers, with four wins in their last five home matches. Goals have been a constant feature as well, with their last six home games producing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring.
Prediction: Both Teams to Score – Yes
Given Fulham’s attacking form at home and West Ham’s tendency to score away, Both Teams to Score looks like the most logical option.
West Ham were brought back down to earth with a heavy 2-5 defeat away to Liverpool in their latest match. However, prior to that setback the Hammers had shown clear improvement, losing only twice in their previous nine games. Their away attack has also been consistent - they have scored exactly two goals in each of their last four away matches in the Premier League.
Fulham are expected to play proactively, especially at home where they have been comfortable pushing forward and creating chances. West Ham, meanwhile, will likely look to respond after the Liverpool defeat and exploit spaces through quick transitions.
Both sides have demonstrated attacking capability but also defensive vulnerabilities. With Fulham’s high-scoring home trend and West Ham’s productive away performances, a match with goals at both ends appears highly likely.
