Fulham is set to host struggling Sheffield United at Craven Cottage on Saturday, and all indications point towards a potential morale-boosting win for Marco Silva’s side.
Following their recent defeat at home to Chelsea, Fulham has encountered a challenging start to the season, having lost three out of their first seven games. Their goal-scoring record also presents a concern, as they are currently among the lowest-scoring teams in the top flight, netting only five goals so far. While replacing Aleksandar Mitrovic was always going to be a tall order, Silva’s team seems to have a balance issue. The hope now lies in the likes of Carlos Vinicius or Raul Jimenez to step up and deliver, even if they can replicate half of Mitrovic’s output.
On the other hand, Sheffield United finds themselves in a state of disarray, having suffered three consecutive losses and conceding a total of 12 goals in the process. Their 8-0 drubbing at the hands of Newcastle dealt a severe blow to Paul Heckingbottom’s side, and their performance in the 2-0 defeat against West Ham last weekend was below par. The Blades are yet to secure a victory in the Premier League this season, and this upcoming match is precisely the type they must win to assert their presence back in the top tier.
