Recent respective form guides

Fulham have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. A generous 7 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Charlton Ath.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Addicks have hit 4 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Fulham's 45 points from 34 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position. Charlton Ath.'s 48 points from 34 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 7th position.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Fulham at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Cottagers will at least gain a draw. Score draw
