Relegation threatened Fulham will host West Ham United in the 23rd round of matches in the Premier League this Saturday. The hosts have so far managed 14 points and are placed 18th in the standings while West Ham are fifth with 38 points. Fulham are desperate to end a poor run that threatens to send them straight back to the Championship. They go to this game winless in their last 11 league matches, after their 2-0 loss to Leicester City on Wednesday. With the loss, they have now failed to score in three of the last five matches and conceded at least two goals in the last four matches. Their only win in the last 13 matches has come in the FA Cup and they’ve been poor at home too, with four straight losses going to this game. In 11 league games at home this season, Fulham have managed just one win. Seven have ended in losses and three in draws. They have failed to score in four of the last five home matches and have conceded eight in five home matches. Five of their last seven home matches have seen under 2.5 goals scored.

West Ham struggled last season and only managed to avoid relegation in the final rounds but this season, they have emerged as serious contenders for a top four finish. They are just two points out of the Champions League slots and their recent form suggests they will give it a serious fight. In the last 10 matches West Ham have suffered only two losses and won seven. They have five wins in six league matches after recovering from the 3-1 loss to Liverpool, to beat Aston Villa 3-1. New signing Jesse Lingard has hit the ground running, and in his first game since leaving Manchester United, he scored two goals. He showed good linkup with Toma Soucek and Michail Antonio, which is a big win for West Ham. Further his already established relations with David Moyes will work well for the Hammers. West Ham have scored in each of the last eight matches, and failed in just one of the last 10. In four of their last five matches, they have scored at least two goals, totaling 13 goals in the last five matches. They have conceded seven in the process though. Moyes’ side is unbeaten in the last five away matches, with four straight wins and three clean sheets. They’ve failed to score in just one of the last five away matches.
