Fulham will host West Ham on Wednesday with kickoff at 2:30pm EST on Peacock.

For the second match in a row Fulham faces another London club that is unexpectedly fighting off relegation. When West Ham and Fulham faced off in December, Fulham was figuring out how to win during AFCON and a late Raul header got three points for Fulham at the London Stadium. After that West Ham went through their worst period with a 3-0 loss to Wolverhampton and a 2-1 loss to Forest. Since then however, West Ham has turned it around with three wins, two draws, and two loses (to Liverpool and Chelsea). West Ham haven't won in the league in almost a month, so they are looking at this match as a chance to start picking up the necessary wins again to get out of relegation.

Fulham has struggled to show consistency this season, but they looked pretty good against Sunderland and Tottenham so I'm hoping for another strong performance on Wednesday. Diop was awarded MotM by the fans for his performance on Sunday, so even if Andersen is well I'd be surprised if Diop doesn't start. Bobb also made a good case for another start, but with just a few days rest Chukwueze could switch out with Bobb and let him come on in the second half. Iwobi was the one forward player who didn't get subbed out until injury time, but I can't imagine him not starting since he's been key in Fulham's performances against Sunderland and Tottenham.

This should be another good match that stays close, but I think Fulham should be able to get another win.

I didn't realize Wilson had an ankle issue in the Tottenham game. Silva says he's still being assessed. I imagine if he can't start then we'd see both Bobb and Chukwueze at kickoff. Silva also says Andersen will be available.
