West Ham vs Fulham Preview
- Date – Sunday, April 14, 2024
- Kick-off Time – 01:00 pm GMT
- Venue – London Stadium
West Ham have had a decent 2023-24 campaign so far and find themselves seventh in the Premier League rankings. They are one point behind Manchester United, who have a game in hand. The Hammers have 13 wins, nine draws and 10 defeats in their 32 league games.
West Ham are also active in the UEFA Europa League. They will take on Bayer Leverkusen in the quarter-finals, with the first leg away on Thursday, April 11. Having won the UEFA Europa Conference League last season, they will look to add the Europa League to their cabinet as well.
Fulham, meanwhile, have had a disappointing season and sit 13th in the Premier League standings. They have 11 wins, six draws, and 15 defeats in 32 league games. The Cottagers have pulled off some big results against some big teams but have largely failed to impress.

West Ham vs Fulham Prediction
West Ham have just one defeat in their last six games across competitions with three draws and two wins. They beat Wolves 2-1 away in their last game. However, a Europa League tie against Bayer Leverkusen could be a big distraction and energy-spending affair for the Hammers.
Fulham, meanwhile, have just one win in their last five games, losing three and drawing one. They lost 1-0 against Newcastle at home in their last game and will be looking to bounce back on Sunday.
With West Ham’s Europa League tie and Fulham being rested, this could go in the favor of the Cottagers.
Predicted Score: West Ham 1-2 Fulham
