Two years after relegation to the Championship Fulham returned to the elite English division. This season the London club has one task, namely to stay in the Premier League. It will be incredibly difficult for the summer residents to complete it, despite the fact that now the team has good chances to get out of the relegation zone. According to results of 16 rounds played, Scott Parker’s wards got hold of twelve points, which put them in 18th place. Brighton is next, but the closest opponent has two more matches played, which promises the Londoners the prospect of catching up and overtaking a competitor. Five rounds in a row “summer residents” play in a draw. At the same time each of these matches ended with a bottom. On 13-th of December Fulham gave Liverpool an unpleasant surprise (1:1), after which they alternately shared points with Brighton (0:0), Newcastle (1:1) and Southampton (0:0). In the FA Cup summer residents moved up the grid thanks to the victory over QPR, which was formalized in extra halves. Last Wednesday Parker’s wards got hold of points in London in their usual manner, where they snatched a draw from Tottenham (1:1). Kearney and Lemina will not be hosting this meeting and Loftus-Chick will miss the game due to the terms of the lease agreement with Chelsea. It is not yet known whether the main forward of the team Alexander Mitrovic will play.
Monaco is in optimal shape today. In the last round the team was stronger than Angers (3:0) at the home arena. This victory became the second in a row and already the third in the last 4 rounds. Such results turned out to be enough for Niko Kovacs’ wards to rise to the 4th line (in the Europa League zone). The team has 33 points on its account today and is 6 points behind the Champions League zone. The Monegasques are rightfully considered one of the brightest teams in League 1. In 19 rounds they scored 36 goals and conceded 27. On average, 3.3 goals are scored per match with their participation. In 13 matches the bet was recorded on “both will score – yes”. The red and white do not shine away. In 9 matches they earned only 12 points (4 wins and 5 losses). In 6 games the horse total was over 2.5. By the way, only Monaco and Strasbourg have never parted with their rivals at a party. Florentino Luis will not be able to play due to the coronavirus. Cesc Fabregas remains questionable due to a shin injury. More today football match prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
