Fulham v Norwich Odds as Ladbrokes predict Cottagers to struggle in Premiership season KO
Fulham get their Premier League campaign underway against Norwich at Craven Cottage on Saturday afternoon, as Ladbrokes report plenty of punters are piling into the Canaries at a great price of 7/2, and taking up their £50 free bets offer, recently launched for the new Premiership season.
Both these teams will have ambitions on making the top half this season but will know that the first task is to secure survival, something they will want to do as quickly as possible.
Martin Jol did a good job at the Cottagers last season, securing them a ninth place finish. Something similar this time out would be deemed as another success.
Weekend Premiership : Ladbrokes Free Bet Offer
The football is back this weekend, with some superb matches to get stuck in to as Ladbrokes announce a new free bets offer worth £50/€50 to all customers to spend on any match from the English Leagues. Claim here!
With plenty of quality in the league this season, the London club will know that a poor start could see them involved in a relegation battle.
Jol has added Hugo Rodallega to his squad from Wigan and he is the man who could be given the task of leading the line.
The future still remains in doubt for star man Clint Dempsey. He has been linked with a move away from the club for much of the summer, but at the moment, is still a Fulham player and is likely to appear on Saturday.
As for Norwich, they begin life under new manager Chris Hughton after Paul Lambert moved to Aston Villa this summer.
The Canaries will know what a tough season they are in for and that a good start is vital.
Grant Holt has committed his future to Carrow Road and he will want to emulate his success of last season where he scored 15 goals in the league.
Something similar from the 31-year-old this time out and Norwich should beat the drop.
New signings Robert Snodgrass and Michael Turner are likely to feature, while Jacob Butterfield and Steven Whitaker may face a fight to be fit.
Hughton’s men will highlight home form as the key this campaign and any points picked up on the road are a bonus, but at a big price of 7/2, they look a little too big to turn down on this occasion.
Kick-off for this one is at 3pm on Saturday.
