Fulham v Bournemouth: Key stats and talking points

Bournemouth take their 15-game unbeaten streak to west London, where they face Fulham on Saturday (15:00 BST).

Since Fulham beat Spurs on 1 March to record three wins in a row in all competitions, the goals have dried up for the Cottagers, whose dreams of Europe are now also in danger of evaporating.

Their eight matches since then have yielded just four goals, with three coming in one match against strugglers Burnley.

Fulham had only failed to score in five of their first 28 league games this season but have now not found the net in five of their last seven.

However, they did win the two games in that run in which they did score and are now aiming to win three consecutive home league games for the first time since December 2023.

Fulham could do with Raul Jimenez finding his shooting boots again – the Mexican has scored just once in his past 11 matches for club and country.

But Jimenez does have a good record against Bournemouth, hitting five goals in his six Premier League starts against them.

Bournemouth on course for Europe

Bournemouth are currently leading the battle for sixth spot, which would bring with it a European debut for the club – with an outside chance of it coming in the Champions League.

Their current form certainly measures up to the cream of the continent, with their 15-game unbeaten run the longest of any side in Europe's top five leagues.

Bournemouth conceded an average of three goals in their first nine Premier League away games this season but have conceded just six times in their last eight on the road, an average of 0.8 per game.

The Cherries have done a brilliant rebuilding job under this season – they lost four of their first-choice defenders in the summer, with leading striker joining in the January transfer window.
