Fulham - Preston North End betting tips and odds

The odds are definitely leaning in the hosts’ favour, but this match is far from a done deal. Judging by odds alone, Preston North End may yet be able to walk away with a draw or even a surprise victory – though it’s still a longshot.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Preston, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 7.00.

Despite favourable betting odds and a lead at half-time, Fulham narrowly lost the game they played at Derby County last round. The upset is probably a blow to their confidence – that was a match they should have easily won despite playing away.

Preston are here on the back of an undecided match against Millwall. The odds were in The Lilywhites’s favour, though, and they were the hosts – which means that the draw result was a disappointment.

These two teams already clashed multiple times this season, and neither managed to come out on top in any of those games. Most bookmakers see The Cottagers as the favourites, though, so they’ll want to use the extra drive of being the hosts to finally earn a conclusive result.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Tuesday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

Going for a -1.5 Handicap on the favourite’s score is the best way to get some value out of this match. You’ll eliminate the possibility of a draw, for one. More importantly, this way you might actually get a decent payout for backing the stronger team.
