Command Analysis
Fulham
EnglandCurrent form
Fulham had a very difficult schedule in December, they had to play with almost all the leaders of the Premier League - Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea. Marco Silva team withstood such a difficult test with honor, not losing to any of them. At the moment, the Londoners are on a seven-match unbeaten streak - five draws and two wins. In the tournament table, the "cottagers" occupy ninth place and do not lose hope to join the fight for a place in the European Cups, although the gap from the top 6 is five points.
Undoubtedly, Fulham results could have been much better, but the team fails to consistently score points in matches with outsiders and with opponents of comparable class. Thus, in the last round, the "cottagers" were unable to beat Bournemouth on their home field (2:2), before that there was a draw at home with Southampton (0:0).
Disqualifications and injuries
Due to injuries, Berge, Tete, Nelson and Reed will not play today.
Interesting trends for betting
- Fulham have won in the first half in three of their last five matches
- Fulham have suffered just one defeat in their last 11 Premier League matches
Probable line-up: Leno - Diop, Andersen, Bassi - Castagne, Lukic, Pereira, Robinson - Wilson, Jimenez, Iwobi.
Ipswich Town
EnglandCurrent form
In the last round, Ipswich pleased its fans with a home victory over Chelsea (2:0). They managed to score twice, once from a penalty, the second time from play. In some ways, of course, they were lucky, since the opponent had a huge advantage. Obviously, such a victory can give the players confidence in their own strength, especially since the fight for survival is in full swing. With 15 points, the Tractor Workers approach the 20th round in 18th place in the relegation zone and are only one point behind the saving 17th line.
Away, in general, as an outsider, Ipswich has good indicators: two wins and two draws in nine matches played. Kieran McKenna charges beat Tottenham and Wolverhampton away with the same score 2:1.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ipswich injured list includes Ogbene, Hurst and Tuanzebe.
Interesting trends for betting
- Ipswich have scored three or fewer goals in nine of their last 11 Premier League games
- Ipswich have not lost in the first half in nine of their last 11 Premier League games
Probable line-up: Walton - O'Shea, Woolfenden, Greaves, Davies - Morsy, Cajuste - Burns, Hutchinson, Broadhead - Delap.

6.80Tip and bets
Fulham are much higher than their upcoming opponent in the standings, are on a seven-game unbeaten streak, play at home and are deservedly considered favourites by bookmakers. It is worth noting that the Cottagers do not always confidently earn points in matches with outsiders, recall the recent home draw with Southampton. Ipswich fights in every match, does not recognise authorities, and after the victory over Chelsea the players will clearly be on a decent emotional high. We believe that the visitors can surprise us and give us a surprise today.
Our prediction is Ipswich win with Asian handicap (+1) at odds of 1.93
Bet on total
Fulham have exchanged goals with their opponents in four of their last five matches. Ipswich are distinguished by their precise finishing, with Delap in attack, who only needs the smallest opportunity to score. We expect an exchange of goals today.
Second bet - both teams to score with odds of 1.80
Yellow Card Betting
Let take a look at the promising trend in yellow cards. Fulham players have received at least two yellow cards in nine of their last 11 home games in the Premier League. It highly likely that this statistic will not fail this time either.
Prediction – Fulham yellow cards total over 1.5 with odds of 1.67
