AFC Bournemouth face Fulham at Vitality Stadium, Bournemouth, Dorset on Saturday, Jan 30 at 4:00 PM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose. Both clubs are deep in the relegation picture in the Premier League, and defeat here could prove costly come the end of the season.

AFC Bournemouth come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Fulham travel struggling badly (0W 3L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

History strongly favours AFC Bournemouth here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Fulham, with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in Fulham won 0–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives AFC Bournemouth a slight edge, but Fulham are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
