Huddersfield vs Fulham predictions, betting tips and odds |05/11/2018|

Huddersfield vs Fulham predictions

Huddersfield will be the hosts on Monday night when Fulham make the trek to the John Smith Stadium. This bottom-of-the-league clash will be closely followed by Newcastle and Cardiff City with implications for both sides should the away team win.

Huddersfield vs Fulham: odds and predictions

The Cottagers are 11/5 favourites in our Huddersfield vs Fulham predictions and betting tips, despite being the travelling team, with David Wagner’s side trading as 13/10 outsiders and a draw projected at 23/10.

Huddersfield will be desperate for points in what will be a must-win game for the Terriers after a heavy defeat to title-challengers Liverpool last weekend.

The attacking outlets present in the Fulham offence will be problematic for a defence that has so far conceded 21 goals in 10 games, with a solitary clean sheet to cling onto.

Even worse is the fact that in this period they have only scored four goals, with players like Steve Mounie and Lauren Depoitre struggling to convert their chances in front of goal.

Both men are wagering at 5/1 to score first, but our betting tipsters have better odds for the away side.

Fulham will be hoping for an away victory, considering Huddersfield’s defensive issues.

Leading the charge is Aleksander Mitrovic, who has already bagged five goals in ten games for the Cottagers and is our pick to score first, betting at 11/2.

Huddersfield vs Fulham match betting: score, double result, scorer tips

Predicted score: Fulham to win 2-1, trading @ 10/1

Wagner’s side are yet to notch a win under their belt in ten attempts, and the first match bet in our Huddersfield vs Fulham predictions forecasts this woeful trend continuing for the Terriers.

The Cottagers have scored 11 times in their opening ten games, which may not be the most inspirational statistic, but given that they have played against Manchester City, Tottenham and Arsenal while showing genuine attacking prowess, odds of 10/1 about a 2-1 win may be our best bet.

Double result: Fulham/Fulham, wagering @ odd of 4/1

Continuing the theme of despair for the home team, the odds for a dominating display by Fulham in our Huddersfield vs Fulham predictions and betting tips are projecting at a decent 4/1 return.

Our William Hill traders are making Slaviša Jokanović’s side our pick to control both halves of play, with Wagner’s side under the Kosh from the onset.

The Terriers may have a chance to break on the counter, but given that the Fulham midfield consists of Jean-Michael Seri and Ryan Sessegnon, they won’t beat them for pace.

Predicted scorer: Andre Schurrle to score first, tipped @ 6/1

The German was forced out of a prolific Dortmund side last year, due to injury and lack of form, but in Fulham colours, Schurrle has been a breath of fresh air.

Four goals in his opening ten games is a promising start and have persuaded the last match bet in our Huddersfield vs Fulham predictions to sway in his favour.

A vital goal against Brighton followed up with a man-of-the-match performance against Sean Dyche’s Burnley sees the 27-year-old on the up after a season to forget in the Bundesliga.

Odds of 6/1 could be a smash-and-grab in this Monday’s clash with the in-form German leading the goal-scoring charge.
