West Ham vs Fulham Betting Tips: BTTS / Fulham or draw
Fulham make the short trip to the London Stadium in high spirits after a convincing 4:1 win against local rivals Watford in the FA Cup on Saturday.
Unbeaten in nine matches since the start of December, Marco Silva´s men have been in fine form although they had been held to four successive home draws before their FA Cup success over the weekend.
While attractive to watch, the Cottagers have struggled for clean sheets this season, making them one of the most reliable choices in the goal markets. Remarkably, only three of their last 20 matches did not see both teams getting on the scoresheet.
Perhaps more impressive on their travels, Silva´s side are unbeaten in five successive road trips with notable results picked up at Tottenham (1:1), Liverpool (2:2) and Chelsea (2:1).
West Ham come into Tuesday's Premier League encounter on the back of a third successive defeat on Saturday. Despite taking the lead at Villa Park, the Hammers FA Cup hopes were dashed as Aston Villa fought back to claim a 2:1 win.
With Graham Potter now in the West Ham hotseat following the dismissal of Julen Lopetegui, I expect an uptick in form from the home side. However, they will need to be at their best to keep out an impressive Fulham side protecting a nine-game unbeaten run.
In the end, we should see goals at both ends, with both teams capable of getting at each other´s vulnerable defences. The Hammers have failed to keep clean sheets in eight of their last nine matches, while Fulham have seen BTTS in nine of their ten most recent fixtures.
BTTS is my top pick with Fulham likely to earn at least a point at the London Stadium.

West Ham team news
Head coach Potter has some attacking issues to deal with on Tuesday. Niclas Füllkrug, Mikael Antonio and Jarrow Bowen are all unavailable so Danny Ings is likely to spearhead the Hammers attack.
