Wolves vs Fulham Prediction: Cunha can give the hosts a chance

Wolves will look to build on Saturday's 1-0 win over Bournemouth when they welcome Fulham to Molineux in the Premier League on Tuesday night (Tuesday 19:30 KO, TNT Sports 4).

Read on for my Wolves vs Fulham prediction, as well as the latest team news and match odds.

Football Odds

Vitor Pereira's men benefitted from Illia Zabarnyi's red card at the Vitality Stadium before securing a 1-0 win, which was a major boost to their survival hopes.

While the Midlands club were victorious, the Cottagers fell to a 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace.

Wolves will start Tuesday's match 17th in the Premier League table, five points clear of the bottom three, while Fulham are 10th, 17 points ahead of their hosts.

Team News

Wolves left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri was on the receiving end of Zabarnyi's red-card challenge, and, while he was able to carry on, he did hobble off with a knock towards the end of the 1-0 win.

The defender is now a doubt on Tuesday, as is Rodrigo Gomes, while Sasa Kalajdzic, Yerson Mosquera, Emmanuel Agbadou, Hwang Hee-chan, Leon Chiwome and Enso Gonzalez are ruled out through injury.

Fulham boss Marco Silva saw his team pick up two injuries against Palace, with Emile Smith Rowe and Tom Cairney now needing to prove their fitness.

Harry Wilson and Kenny Tete have already been ruled out of action, while Reiss Nelson has already undergone surgery on a season-ending hamstring injury.

Wolves vs Fulham Odds

Despite having home advantage, Wolves are 7/4 to pick up all three points on Tuesday, with the draw 23/10, while Fulham are 7/5 to win on the road.

Both teams to score is available at 4/6, while Wolves striker Cunha is the favourite to score at 13/8, closely followed by Fulham forward Raul Jimenez.

As part of one of our Price Boosts, Wolves to win, Cunha 2+ shots on target and Sasa Lukic 3+ tackles has been boosted to 7/1 from 11/2.

Over 2.5 goals @ 5/6

Tuesday's meeting promises to be a lively affair at Molineux, with the Cottagers five points behind fifth-placed Newcastle.

Silva's team will still believe they can qualify for Europe, but last weekend's defeat to Palace showed they still have work to do.

Wolves have won three of their last four games in all competitions to restore some confidence, while Fulham have enjoyed the same record.

The hosts are the leading scorers out of the Premier League's bottom eight, while the Cottagers have scored in 14 consecutive away matches.

Each of the last three meetings between the two clubs have contained at least three goals, while both matches at Craven Cottage saw a whopping five goals scored.

Matheus Cunha to score anytime @ 13/8

If Wolves are to be successful, striker Cunha is going to be central to anything they do in the final third.

The Brazilian has scored 14 goals in 27 appearances in all competitions this season, with four of those goals coming in his last four outings.

Cunha is at the heartbeat of Wolves' attacks as the central attacker and he netted twice in the 4-1 win over Fulham in November.
