THE LOWDOWN

FULHAM

• Fulham enjoyed a dream return to Premier League action in what has been a dream season for them so far, beating nine-man Crystal Palace 0-3 in a memorable London derby at Selhurst Park.
• Star striker Aleksandar Mitrovic was a doubt heading into that match, but he was passed fit to play and what an impact he made, scoring and accruing two assists, once again underlining his importance to Marco Silva’s side.

SOUTHAMPTON

• Southampton endured a miserable Boxing Day on the South Coast in Nathan Jones’ first home Premier League match in charge as they lost 1-3 against Brighton, dropping them to the bottom of the table.
• The Saints have now lost four league games in a row and January cannot come soon enough for Jones, who will no doubt be desperate to add reinforcements to his depleted and inadequate squad.

THE PREDICTION

Now rock-bottom of the Premier League, confidence couldn’t be lower among the Southampton camp right now and Nathan Jones has a huge task on his hands to turn the sinking Saints ship around. Fulham in contrast, are flying high with both momentum and confidence in abundance. They are scoring goals, keeping things tight at the back and creating plenty of opportunities to find the net at regular intervals. It’s hard to see Southampton being able to cope with Fulham at present and with home advantage in their favour, another three points for the Cottagers has to be favoured here.

TIP: FULHAM TO WIN
