What to expect

We expect about 1.5 goals from Fulham and 1.2 from Crystal Palace, so Fulham come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.8 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Over 2.5 goals. This should be an open game: we make it around 2.8 goals between the two (xG 1.5-1.2), landing about 52% of the time on these numbers. Both sides carry a threat, so the goals should follow.

We put the chance of that landing at about 49 out of 100. There is no settled price to hold that up against yet, so treat the call on its own terms.

What the numbers say

Crystal Palace have won three of their last five.

Bradford are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.6-1.0), and we make them about 58% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
