Brighton & Hove Albion - Fulham betting tips and odds

The home team is the obvious choice for anyone looking to bet on favourites. The match is not completely one-sided, though, which is why you may actually get worthwhile returns.

From the present standpoint, the situation is clear as day. Considering the strength of Brighton & Hove Albion and the 5.50 odds given to Fulham to win, it is easy to conclude that a victory for the visiting team would be a surprising upset.

The previous round for Brighton was quite uneventful, all things considered. The away game at Crystal Palace saw a draw on half-time and a 1:1 draw at the end – not exactly a treat for the fans.

Fulham gave the fans at their home stadium quite a show in their previous game against Nottingham Forest, snagging a decisive 2:0 victory. The victory itself was somewhat predictable, but the first-half lead and notable lead speaks volumes about their form.

The Seagulls leave quite the impression whenever we see them play in front of their fans at The American Express Community Stadium. They scored more than 5 goals in total the last 3 times they did so, which is a solidly impressive record.

The past two times Fulham played as visitors, the audience was treated to a rather dull affair. Both matches featured one goal at best and this is something to consider ahead of the Saturday clash.

The Seagulls are nearing the middle of the season mark with a 6th spot. There’s still plenty of time to claw their way into the top positions and achieve European qualification.

The visitors will be playing at a disadvantage this Saturday, so it’s not likely that they’ll climb up the table to get to a Europa League qualification any time soon. There’s still close to half the season ahead of them, though, so they’ll have plenty of chances either way.

Though the odds are clearly in the hosts’ favour, the head-to-head history for this Premier League clash tells a different story. The Seagulls lost the last time these two teams met on the pitch, so an upset is definitely possible.

Decent offers are in short supply for this match, so our best tip is to risk an HT/FT bet and go for Draw/Home. It’s quite a bold offer to take at odds of 4.50, but the betting value makes it interesting.
