Fulham face Bournemouth in a crucial Premier League clash with both sides chasing European qualification. Fulham are solid at home and sit just three points away from continental spots, while Bournemouth are on a 16-game unbeaten streak and have drawn more games than any other EPL team this season. Both teams have their share of injury concerns, with Fulham missing key players and Bournemouth monitoring midfield fitness. With strong defensive records and a recent history of draws between these sides, a stalemate is the most probable outcome.

H2H 


Bournemouth have a 17-12 advantage against Fulham, alongside 13 draws.

Fulham Eyeing the European Spots


Fulham are 11th in the Premier League table and just three points off the Conference League qualification places. Marco Silva’s side have secured 32 of their 48 points at home this season. 

The Londoners are undefeated in four of their last six league fixtures, including home wins over Burnley 3-1 and Aston Villa 1-0. Fulham had 4.32 total XG across both of those matches. 

The Cottagers couldn't build on the back-to-back home victories and lost 3-0 at league leaders Arsenal. Silva's side allowed 3.23 XG, let in three first-half goals and had just one shot on target. 

Bournemouth Are the EPL Draw Specialists


Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth are unbeaten in 15 consecutive Premier League matches. The south coast team have earned 29 points in that period, the third highest amount in the division. 

Bournemouth have drawn eight games in their recent unbeaten streak and have drawn a league-high 16 matches this season. 

The Cherries drew five in a row from February to March before beating Arsenal and Newcastle 2-1. A 2-2 home draw against Leeds followed, where Bournemouth had 1.65 XG and 17 shots.

Iraola's side responded with a comfortable 3-0 home triumph against Crystal Palace. Eli Junior Kroupi and Rayan scored and the Cherries had 2.08-0.89 XG.
