So it comes as good news that Premier League football is back this weekend with Wolves travelling to Craven Cottage to take on Fulham. After they stunned Southampton 2-0 in the last game taking them out of the relegation zone, so, Gary O’Neil side will be looking to continue from where it left off. Even RoI fans will continue to pressurise O’Neil despite the Scot claiming his first victory of the season The match against Fulham will be a stiff test.
It would not be good news for the wolves to face a solid Fulham side occupying the Firing line just below the champions league slots. Football expert Paul Merson also seems to agree that the odds are against the Wolves and he is expecting Fulham to win the next match 2-0.
What is interesting in Merson’s perspective is he suggests that Wolves critical stage comes before Christmas and if the team is not able to secure a sufficient number of points then it may be relegated. The coming matches are now on O’Neil to deliver positive outcome, otherwise, he stands high chances of being dismissed.
Wolves are expected not to drop dead in their counterattacks in order to triumph over Fulham as well as counter all the dangers that can be posed by the players of Marco Silva. Adama Traore is clearly one of the moments for Wolves and a player who can influence the events on the field both in attack and defense, the same can be said about Carlos Forbs. Fulham has had an upturn in their recent fixtures, although, the side plying their trade at Molineux enjoys a better recent record over the Cottagers with having triumphed in four of the seven most recent encounters.
Wolves will want to bring that memory into the game as they head to Craven Cottage this Saturday where they will face a sharp test.
