Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Fulham vs Wolverhampton Wanderers – Week 12 Premier League
Craven Cottage will play host to an intriguing clash when Fulham and Wolverhampton Wanderers lock horns in Week 12 of the Premier League. Both teams find themselves in the middle of the table and are desperate for points to avoid being dragged into a relegation scrap.
Fulham are aiming to bounce back after a tough loss against Aston Villa in their last outing. Marco Silva’s side will look to exploit their home advantage, with star forward Aleksandar Mitrović returning to full fitness. Key defender Tim Ream is suspended due to a red card in the previous game, which leaves a hole in their backline. Look for Andreas Pereira to orchestrate things in midfield as Fulham aim to regain their footing.
Wolves, on the other hand, enter this fixture riding high after a morale-boosting win over Tottenham. Under Gary O’Neil, the team has shown resilience and flashes of attacking brilliance, particularly through Pedro Neto and Matheus Cunha. However, Neto remains a doubt for this encounter due to a lingering hamstring issue. With Ruben Neves gone, João Gomes has stepped up in midfield, and Wolves will rely heavily on his creativity and work rate to secure points on the road.
Given Fulham’s defensive absences and Wolves’ newfound attacking confidence, we anticipate a closely fought contest. Both teams to score looks like a promising bet in this encounter.

Highlighted Player (Aleksandar Mitrović):
Aleksandar Mitrović is Fulham’s talisman and one of the most lethal strikers in the Premier League when on form. Born in Serbia on September 16, 1994, Mitrović began his career at Partizan before moving to Anderlecht, where he made a name for himself as a prolific scorer.
Since joining Fulham, Mitrović has become synonymous with the club’s fortunes. Whether it’s a towering header or a thunderous strike, his ability to lead the line and find the net is unmatched. In the 2022/23 season, he scored 14 league goals, helping Fulham secure a respectable mid-table finish. If Fulham are to win this weekend, Mitrović will undoubtedly be at the center of the action.
Highlighted Team (Wolverhampton Wanderers):
Wolverhampton Wanderers, better known as Wolves, have a rich history that dates back to 1877. Based at Molineux Stadium, the team has undergone a resurgence in recent years, highlighted by their return to the Premier League in 2018 and subsequent impressive finishes under former manager Nuno Espírito Santo.
Known for their fearless approach and attacking football, Wolves have always relied on a mix of homegrown talent and international stars. The likes of Adama Traoré, Pedro Neto, and Matheus Nunes have added flair to their squad, while stalwarts like Conor Coady and Rui Patrício provided stability in defense during their Premier League heyday.
Although their recent form has been inconsistent, Wolves remain a side capable of upsetting bigger teams, and their fans will be hoping for another strong performance at Craven Cottage this weekend.
