Sixth-placed Fulham will entertain Wolverhampton Wanderers at Craven Cottage in the Premier League on Friday.
The hosts have seen an uptick in their recent league games and are on a three-game unbeaten run, winning the last two games. They met Brighton & Hove Albion last Saturday and recorded a 1-0 win thanks to a late goal from substitute Manor Solomon. The win helped them leapfrog Brighton to secure sixth place in the league table.
Wolverhampton Wanderers saw their winning run come to an end after two games as they suffered a 1-0 defeat at home to 17th-placed Bournemouth. It was their second defeat in four league games and they remain in 15th place in the league standings.

Fulham vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction
The Cottagers have seen an uptick in form in their recent games and will be hopeful of a solid outing at home. They have just one win to their name against the visitors in all competitions since 2015.
The visitors have the worst attacking record in the league, scoring just 17 goals in 23 games. The reverse fixture ended in a goalless draw and, considering the recent history between them, we expect this game to end in a low-scoring affair.
