Recent respective form guides
West Ham United's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Hammers have scored 8, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Fulham's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Cottagers have hit 4 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.
West Ham Utd. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Barclays Premier League with a return of just 4 points from their 6 games thus far. Fulham are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 6 points from 6 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from West Ham Utd. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Hammers will at least gain a draw. Score draw
