Keen on upgrading their old squad, West Ham got the coaching services of Julen Lopetegui for the upcoming season. Nevertheless, Lopetegui failed to tick all the right boxes and was unable to replicate his old glory. After a disappointing 1-4 defeat against Manchester City, Lopetegui was sacked because the management was running low on patience. This decision stemmed from their previous decision to sack a coach after West Ham had lost 0-5 to Liverpool.
Graham Potter is now the new manager of the hammers, and he has the task of making the team again a part of the European competitions. West Ham currently face a lot of difficulty getting past the EPL however, slowly with time they will be able to catch up but as of now they remain at 14th position with a point tally of 23, which is currently 11 points off from the top 6 spot. Earlier this week, West Ham was knocked out of the FA Cup after losing to Aston Villa by 1-2.
Fulham are currently in excellent form, and enduring an eight match unbeaten streak. Even if six of those were draw, all of the matches were against the EPL greatest. The Cottagers did extremely well during the matches against Arsenal (1:1), Liverpool (2:2), and Chelsea (2:1).
Marco Silva’s boys played to a 2-2 tie with Ipswich at their last round home game, maintaining them in their 9th spot on the table with 30 points. However, Fulham endured a tough time at home as they managed to record 3 wins out of 10 at Craven Cottage, but they might pick up confidence from their last game where they convincingly beat Watford 4-1.
