Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson backs Fulham to win the corner count and Joshua King to test the Ipswich goalkeeper.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Fulham to have most corners | 5/4 (Ladbrokes) | Fulham have won the corner count in four of their five Premier League games, forcing eight at Liverpool and seven at home to Crystal Palace. Ipswich sit at the other end of the scale, failing to force more than four corners in any league match this season and losing the count in three of five. Alvaro Arbeloa’s side average 5.6 corners per game, while Ipswich concede 5.2. With the bookmakers making Ipswich favourites to win the count, Fulham look the value at 5/4. |
| Joshua King to have 2+ shots on target | 16/5 (10bet) | Joshua King has started all five of Fulham’s Premier League games and has landed seven of his 14 shots on target. He has hit the target at least twice in three of those matches, against Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United, and has scored twice. The forward has also taken at least two shots in every game, so the volume is there. Ipswich have conceded in all five league games, shipping 11 goals, and two efforts on target from King looks well within reach at 16/5. |

How Ipswich Town go into the game
Ipswich sit 11th on six points after two wins and three defeats. They won 3-2 at Crystal Palace in their penultimate game but were beaten 1-0 at Everton last time out, and they also lost 5-2 at Manchester United and 2-0 at home to Liverpool.
Gary O’Neil’s side have scored seven but shipped 11, with Emersonn and Leif Davis on two goals each. Abdul Fatawu is suspended after being sent off at Everton.
How Fulham go into the game
Fulham are 19th and still without a win, drawing 1-1 at home with Manchester United last time out after a 0-0 draw at Liverpool. Those followed three straight defeats, including a 3-2 home loss to Chelsea.
Alvaro Arbeloa’s side have managed just five goals, with Joshua King their main threat on two. They have dominated the corner count, though, winning it in four of their five league games.

Ipswich Town vs Fulham score prediction
With Fulham still winless and Ipswich beaten in three of their five games, there is little to choose between the sides. The visitors should enjoy plenty of territory and King can get on the scoresheet, but Ipswich have found the net in three of their five league games and Emersonn can earn them a share of the spoils. Score prediction: Ipswich Town 1-1 Fulham.
