The table tells the story
Fulham's return of two points from six matches leaves them alone at the foot of the table. A win would lift them to five points from seven played; a defeat keeps them on two. Their recent run shows one win, two draws and two defeats, the victory a 3-2 win against WHU following an earlier draw with Liverpool and a defeat to Ipswich last time out. Arbeloa's bias claim after United's Fulham draw followed that 1-1 result, and questions about his future have persisted since.
Hull City have collected nine points from six matches and sit eighth, one point behind Everton and Chelsea. Their recent form shows no wins in five, with three draws and two defeats. They have drawn 2-2 in two of their last three matches, against Chelsea and Everton, and a defeat to Newcastle. A win at Craven Cottage would take them to twelve points from seven; a draw to ten.
What the market expects
The market-implied probability gives Fulham a 55.8 per cent chance of victory despite their position at the bottom of the table, with Hull City at 20.3 per cent and the draw at 23.9 per cent. That is a notable vote of confidence in the home side given they have won just one of their last five recent matches while Hull have avoided defeat in three of theirs. The head-to-head record offers some explanation: Fulham have won four of the last five meetings between the clubs, the five meetings containing nine goals in total including a 2-0 victory in the most recent encounter in January 2023.
