"Fulham are an established club in the Premier League that aim to finish in and around mid-table. The Cottagers ended up 11th in the standings last season and will have been hoping to do the same this time around. Marco Silva's side, though, are not doing so well right now. Fulham are 15th in the Premier League table at the moment with 11 points from 11 matches, a point above the relegation zone."
"Sunderland have been the surprise pack of the Premier League season so far. The Black Cats won promotion from the Championship via the playoffs at the end of last season and were expected to be among the teams fighting for survival in the English top flight. Regis Le Bris's side are as high as fourth in the Premier League table at the moment. Sunderland have picked up 18 points from 11 matches, a point behind third-placed Chelsea and seven points behind leaders Arsenal."
Fulham host Sunderland at Craven Cottage on Saturday with a 3pm UK kickoff. Fulham sit 15th with 11 points from 11 matches, one point above the relegation zone after recent results including a 2-0 defeat at Everton and a 3-0 home win over Wolves. Marco Silva is likely to select a 4-2-3-1 with Bernd Leno; Kenny Tete, Joachim Andersen, Calvin Bassey and Ryan Sessegnon in defence; Sasa Lukic and Sander Berge as holding midfielders; Harry Wilson, Alex Iwobi and Kevin in attack; and Raul Jimenez leading the line. Sunderland were promoted via the Championship playoffs and occupy fourth with 18 points from 11 games, one point behind third-placed Chelsea and seven behind leaders Arsenal. The prediction is a 3-1 Sunderland win.
