After yet another international break, the bread and butter of top-level domestic football returns this weekend, which for many fans and bettors alike is a relief.
On Saturday, Fulham and Wolves go head-to-head at Craven Cottage, where there may just be a few betting opportunities. Read on for our Fulham vs Wolves predictions and tips.
Fulham vs Wolves prediction
For the Fulham vs Wolves match prediction, we believe the final score will be a 1-1 draw based on our analysis.
The hosts are far from easy to beat at Craven Cottage, but the visitors have improved of late and off the back of their first win of the season last time out, could very easily cause a bit of an upset.

Fulham vs Wolves preview
This match will be played on 23/11/2024 at Craven Cottage. Kick off will be at 15:00 GMT.
Following the late, late heroics of Harry Wilson, who not once, but twice found the back of the net in stoppage time against Brentford, earning his team three points in front of a home crowd, the Cottagers continued to move in the right direction before the international break.
With Wilson once again starring from the bench, this time notching a little earlier than added time, Marco Silva’s men once again looked the part, beating Crystal Palace by two goals to nil to secure themselves seventh in the table. Can they make more progress now back in front of a home crowd?
For the visitors, the final game before the international break was also a success, with Gary O’Neill’s men winning in the league for the first time this season.
A little while back, when writing about Wolves’ in a betting sense, I touched on the fact that they’d been dealt a harsh blow fixture-list wise at the start of this season, suggesting that an improved run could be incoming with a string of more manageable fixtures ahead of them, and it looks like we’re seeing that after three games without a defeat.
Fulham vs Wolves Betting tips
Siding with the visitors to get a positive result appeals at the early prices.
Wolves +1 Handicap
Ahead of their last game against Southampton, I stated that Wolves were a great bet at Evens (2.00), and the market clearly agreed as O’Neill’s men were well backed before kicking off at a general price of 5/6.
The early market got it wrong last time and I’m really not convinced that they’ve got it right here either. Sure, the hosts are in strong form, but this Fulham team is far from infallible, while they’re also quite wasteful and open to being countered, which will please the visitors, who are very, very dangerous on the break, as the Saints found out last week.
To be honest, we’ve seen O’Neill’s men turn in three decent performances on the bounce now, while they’re certainly not short of creativity or goals. The Cottagers can create plenty too, but if they’re as wasteful as they have been in recent home games against Villa and Brentford, then they could easily get caught out.
For my money, there’s a greater chance of the hosts coming unstuck and failing to win this game than the early odds would have us believe, as the table above suggests, so taking the visitors to win or draw makes sense from a value point of view.
