Prediction Wycombe Wanderers vs Fulham 2025/2026 season – Betting Tips for the Carabao Cup on 28/10/2025

A cup tie with bite: Adams Park set for fireworks

Wycombe Wanderers welcome Fulham to Adams Park on 28 October in a Round 4 Carabao Cup tie that promises sparks. The compact Hillbottom Road stadium will be buzzing with a crowd capacity of 10,284 and a sense that the underdog can make life difficult — Wycombe arrive on the back of encouraging domestic results, while Fulham bring Premier League firepower and heavy expectations. Robert Madley takes the whistle on a night when momentum and confidence will matter as much as raw ability.

Form lines, recent results and what they mean

Wycombe’s recent run reads impressively for a lower-league side: victories over Huddersfield (3-0) and Wigan alongside high-scoring home displays have built real belief at Adams Park. Cauley Woodrow was outstanding in the most recent league win, earning the match’s best player rating and giving Wycombe a clear attacking focal point. Their latest form string shows a team that can grind out results and punish mistakes — they have produced six wins in their last ten outings and are not afraid to score.

Fulham, meanwhile, come off a narrow 2-1 defeat to Newcastle in the Premier League, and their run across ten matches is patchy with more losses than their quality would suggest. Saša Lukić was Fulham’s standout in that recent outing, but the results highlight inconsistency. Statistically the visitors generate more attacks and dangerous situations on average, and bookmakers clearly reflect Fulham’s edge: the latest match odds put them well clear as favorites, indicating a perceived class gap despite Wycombe’s home resilience.

Tactical snapshot and expected pattern

This ties the brave spirit of a hungry home side to the structured pressure of a top-flight opponent. Wycombe’s attacking numbers and willingness to press could unsettle Fulham early, especially at Adams Park where they have been prolific at times. Fulham’s superior overall attacking averages and dangerous-attack metrics suggest they will probe and look to dominate possession, but their recent away and cup form has been less than convincing. Expect Fulham to control phases of the match while Wycombe threaten on transitions and set-piece moments; it should be competitive, but with a narrow edge to the visitors on paper.

Betting suggestion (1X2): Back Fulham to win. The bookmakers price Fulham at 1.50 (probability ~66.7%), and given the Premier League experience, stronger underlying attacking metrics and the market confidence, the clean 1X2 play is Fulham to progress. Consider a modest stake given Wycombe’s home form and cup appetite.
