League leaders Fulham entertain Blackpool in this Championship match at Craven Cottage. Both teams have played 27 matches with Fulham on 57 points at the top of the table and Blackpool in 14th position with 36 points. The home side have had a great start to the year with four consecutive wins while netting 22 goals in the process. Fulham are five points clear of second placed Blackburn Rovers who have played an extra match. They have only lost once in their last 17 matches across all competitions. That lone defeat was against Sheffield United back in December. Fulham’s last four matches have produced 28 goals at an average of seven goals per match. Fulham are attempting to score 6 or more goals in three consecutive home matches for the first time since Stoke achieved the feat in 1956.

Blackpool comes into this match on the back of a 1-0 win over Millwall but face a daunting task taking on the league leaders. They have however won their last two league games but had a FA Cup loss sandwiched between these wins. Blackpool have not beaten Fulham in their last nine visits to Craven Cottage with their last win coming in 1986. They are attempting a league double over Fulham having won the reverse fixture 1-0 earlier in the season. Blackpool find themselves in mid table because of their poor away form having lost their last three matches on the road. They have won just three of their last 32 away matches in the league.
