Preview
Fulham are bottom of the Premier League with two points from six games and still chasing a first league win under Alvaro Arbeloa. They came closest last Saturday at Ipswich, leading through Ryan Sessegnon until the 88th minute before two late goals turned it into a 2-1 defeat. The pressure on Arbeloa is growing, so this home game matters. Left-back Antonee Robinson has an ankle problem and is doubtful, and Tom Cairney is also listed as doubtful. Kenny Tete is back after concussion. Hull arrive eighth on nine points, with only one defeat in six. They drew 2-2 with Everton on Sunday, when substitute Mohamed Belloumi levelled late. Their injury list is long: goalkeeper Jack Butland, Matt Targett, Darko Gyabi, Charlie Hughes, Eliot Matazo and Ilyas Ansah are out, with Mohamed Ali-Cho a doubt. Fulham won four of the last five meetings, but all of those came in the Championship or the FA Cup. The bookmakers make Fulham favourites. We rate a home win at 55%, the draw at 25% and a Hull win at 21%.
Fulham need a win, but a side without a league win all season is a thin favourite, and Robinson is a doubt. We rate the home win at 55%, just under our bar, so there is no main pick for this match.
