Best Bet

The pick is West Ham 1-1 Fulham. This scoreline balances West Ham's attacking threat at home with Fulham's proven ability to stay compact and hit on the break. Both teams have scored in recent meetings, and a draw reflects the cup context where Fulham will defend deep and look for set pieces. The draw has returned 5.69 profit per unit over West Ham's last ten home games, the strongest trend in the dataset.
