Fulham to seize second chance

Fulham and Sunderland produced a thrilling first match at Craven Cottage 10 days ago, recording 39 shots between them in a 1-1 draw that the Premier League side were arguably relieved to earn.

The winners of tonight’s replay will be at home to Leeds United in round five, so there’s a very real prospect of a place in the quarter-finals of the competition.

Both sides have big league matches at the weekend, so changes are likely to both line-ups. Harry Wilson, Tom Cairney and Manor Solomon are among those expected to come in for Fulham, while Ross Stewart is missing for Sunderland, who have scored in their last 12 matches in all competitions.

We expect another entertaining encounter with Fulham to get the nod over the Championship side.

Wilson can show his class

Wilson hasn’t been involved for Fulham as much as he would have liked this season because of the arrival of Willian.

However, the Wales winger has shown he has real quality and an eye for goal in previous campaigns, especially last season when Fulham won the Championship title.

The 25-year-old scored 10 times in the second tier during the 2021-22 campaign and also claimed 19 assists, and we expect to see him get on the scoresheet against Sunderland.

Batth in for a testing night

Danny Batth has been a key player for Sunderland so far this season but the centre-back has four yellow cards in 26 league matches and also picked one up in the 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage.

He will be in for another tough test against the pace of Solomon and Wilson and the strength of Carlos Vinicius in the Fulham forward line.

Batth will be confident of holding his own in terms of performance this evening, however he may be forced into a rash challenge that means he adds to his tally of yellow cards.
