Both hoping to get off the mark for 2024-25 at the second attempt, Fulham and Leicester City collide at Craven Cottage in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Match Stats

Fulham:

Despite holding out for much of the match, a late goal from Joshua Zirkzee, combined with a missed opportunity by Alejandro Garnacho, left Fulham empty-handed. Manager Marco Silva's side struggled to capitalize on their chances, and recent history shows that early home successes have been rare for the Cottagers. Their last win in a Premier League home opener dates back to the 2012-13 season, and they only managed one point from their last 12 home games last term. Fulham will be eager to secure a positive result at Craven Cottage against Leicester to kickstart their campaign.


Leicester City:

Leicester City opened their season with a 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur. Despite being dominated early on, with Pedro Porro scoring for Tottenham, Leicester staged a comeback with Jamie Vardy leveling the score. The match was disrupted by a severe head injury to Rodrigo Bentancur, which halted Leicester's momentum. Despite this, Leicester showed resilience and could have clinched a win if not for Vardy’s missed chance. Last season, Leicester excelled away from home, winning more away games than any other side in England’s top four tiers. However, their recent history at Craven Cottage is less favorable, with a heavy defeat there in May 2023 marking their fifth loss in eight away games prior to their Premier League relegation.


Prediction:  1-1
