Aston Villa vs FC Fulham Soccer Prediction Today

FC Fulham

In 2014 FC Fulham had to take the bitter gait in the second division. In the previous year, the cottagers failed in the championship semi-final against FC Reading – this year, the collection reached the final. After a 2-0 home win they made the 0-1 away defeat at Derby County. This could finally put the semi-final curse, finally failed the Londoners in all their previous 6 semi-finals. That they made it into the playoff, owes the Whites their outstanding back round season, which ultimately meant the 3rd place in the table. Only 2 points were finally missing on fixed climber Cardiff City. The 2018 Fifa season table is a respectful one for Fulham: with 52 points collected, they are 9 points ahead of Cardiff and 10 points ahead of final opponent Aston Villa. The two decisive factors for success: First, it is the strong offensive department, which sets the second best attack after champion Wolverhampton with 79 season hits. In particular, the 18-year-old Shooting Star on the left wing, Ryan Sessegnon, with 15 goals and Aleksandar Mitrovic, who has hit the Cottagers after his January break from Newcastle and scored 12 goals in 17 games, were the outstanding figures in the Offensive. On the other hand, the Londoners were able to convince both at home and abroad – on average, they got 2.04 points in their home Craven Cottage. On foreign ground, you have a cut of 1.78 points, which means the 2nd place in the away table – the match in neutral Wembley should not be to the detriment of the Cottagers.
Personnel can draw coach Slavisa Jokanovic from the full – not a single failure is to complain. Only the position on the right wing recently provided plenty of fuel. Floyd Akite is likely to replace the ineffective Aboubakar Kamara, while Lucas Piazon is also an option. Otherwise, there should be no changes compared to the 2: 0 against Derby County.

Aston Villa

It’s the second season in the championship for Aston Villa after they sealed the relegation in 2016. Already in the previous year was considered a big favorite, but not even the qualification for the playoffs brought you to. The direct promotion was missed again this season, but veteran coach Steve Bruce led the Villans into the final of the playoffs. Already two years ago, he worked with Hull City the feat of rising with a qualitatively mediocre team in the Premier League. In the final, he will build on defensiveness – led by veteran and defensive chief John Terry – and take the example of a 1-0 win at Derby Counties in the semi-final first leg. Already against Middlesbrough the defense was the deciding factor for the finals. After a narrow 1-0 away win, nothing was left burning at Villa Park and they played the game home dust-free with a goalless draw. The statistics underpin the outstanding defensive achievements of recent weeks: In 7 of the last 10 games managed the team from Birmingham without conceding to stay. In general, the matches of recent weeks can not really be described as peat festivals: In 6 of the last 7 games with Aston Villa participation fell under 2.5 goals. An over / under bet on under 2.5 hits would be an interesting option.
In the final analysis, let’s turn to the squad: Neil Taylor and Axel Tuanzebe are eliminated. Most of the talk, however, revolves around the personality of right-back Ahmed Elmohamady. The Egyptian missed the playoff second leg against Middlesbrough. Steve Bruce is a big fan of the player and has committed him to three different clubs in his career. Otherwise, there should be no changes compared to the last competitive game – in the storm, Lewis Grabban now clearly has the edge and stands out with Jonathan Kodjia and Scott Hogan.
