Fulham vs Wigan – Scoring goals proving a problem for both teams
Published:Goals have not been a regular feature in previous meetings between Fulham and Wigan and there is little to suggest that this is set to change this season at Craven Cottage.
Match Odds
Fulham have still only won one game this season and in total have taken the three points in just three of their last 20 Premier League outings.
Mark Hughes has attempted to encourage his own brand of attacking football this season, but has struggled to get his best team onto the pitch, particularly in attack.
Although Bobby Zamora is still out, Diomansy Kamara recently returned to action and Andy Johnson is in line to play his first game since January at home to Wigan.
Both will need games to sharpen their match fitness and help Fulham beat Wigan at odds of 5/6.
Five of the last seven meetings between the pair have ended in draws, while Wigan are currently enjoying a run that has seen them lose once in their last seven games.
Wigan are 10/3 to beat Fulham and win at Craven Cottage for the first time in four attempts.
