I’ve been keen to go against Fulham quite often already this season, I really don’t rate the direction they’ve taken with Alvaro Arbeloa as head coach and have long felt as though the club were over reliant on Marco Silva, who departed to join Benfica during the summer.

There’s already been some infighting amongst the Fulham camp with rumours of some players not gelling well with the new coaching staff. This is reflected in Fulham’s early record in the Premier League, they’ve lost three of their opening four games, conceding 3+ goals in two of these defeats.

By contrast, West Ham have adapted well to the Championship - most recently running out 6-0 winners over Wrexham, which is a result that will give them lots of confidence ahead of this clash. They have plenty of Premier League quality within their ranks, namely Jarrod Bowen who has already recorded 10 goal contributions this term.

It’s really hard to look past Arsenal in any game at the moment, Mikel Arteta’s side look unstoppable and are by far the most complete side in the Premier League.

This competition is likely to mean very little to Ipswich, with Gary O’Neil likely to prioritise the Premier League following a decent start to the campaign for the newly promoted side. For this reason, I wouldn’t be surprised to see O’Neil rotate for this game which would give Arsenal even more of an advantage.

Arsenal have real depth now, so even if they do rotate with a trip to Brighton to come - it’s likely that even their second string options have enough quality to come out on top here.

Arsenal have won all six of their matches so far this season, winning five of these games to nil. It’s clear that they’re the best side in the country right now, making this an uphill battle for Ipswich.

Tottenham were a really good team to back for corners last season, and they’ve started this season in a similar style - seeing more match corners than any other side in the league across the opening four matches (12.25 per game).

Tottenham have won more corners than any other side in the Premier League (6.75 per game), but the 5.50 corners per game they’re conceding is also one of the highest tallies in the division, which sums up Tottenham quite well at the moment. They struggle to control games, often allowing the opposition to get in decent attacking positions.

Liverpool have seen an average of 9.0 corners per game across their opening four games of the season. Tottenham’s tendency for a slightly higher corner count should see Liverpool’s tally of 4.25 corners per game rise slightly to cover the line we require.

Both of these sides will be relieved to get away from league duties for a bit following a poor start to the campaign from both teams.

Peterborough have only managed to win two of their seven matches this season, though one of these wins did come in the form of a 5-1 win over Watford in the EFL Cup. They’ve seen BTTS in each of their last two matches, only keeping two clean sheets all campaign.

Barnsley have seen BTTS in four of their last five matches, coming into this game having conceded three goals without reply on the road against Plymouth. They ran out 2-1 winners when the sides met back in February, with that clash seeing both sides post a healthy xG (1.11-2.28).
