Fulham vs. Hull Online Betting Odds
19th October, 2009
Fulham entertain Hull City at Craven Cottage tonight and both teams desperately need the points to move away from the relegation zone.
Hull currently sits in 18th place in the drop zone, while the cottagers lie in 15th position. However both teams have accumulated 7 points so far and are only separated by goal difference.
Hull, who beat Wigan in their last match 2-1, will know that they can climb to at least 14th place. Hull manager Phil Brown told Sky Sports.com "Win against Fulham and you're in double figures and all of a sudden the pressures of the Premier League are alleviated to a certain extent”.
Fulham will celebrate their 130th anniversary tonight but manager Roy Hodgson will have a lot more to worry about as his team gets ready to play three matches in five days. Fulham have already played 15 games this season, which is more than anyone else in the Premier League and this is due to their commitments in the Europa League.
In team news, Damien Duff is expected to return from a calf injury, while Simon Davies is doubtful as he has picked up an ankle injury. Kagisho Dikagcoi starts a three match ban after being sent off for violent conduct against West Ham.
For Hull, Jimmy Bullard may return after nine months out injured against his former club. A decision will also be made about centre-back, Anthony Gardner, who has been missing with injury for the past two months.
The match Kicks-off at 8pm on Monday and will be live on ESPN. Fulham is 4/6 with bet 365, Hull is 5/1 with canbet. The draw is 11/4 with Ladbrokes.
