 Fulham continued their fight against relegation with a 3-2 comeback victory over Manchester City on Saturday.
With two games remaining in the season the Cottagers are at 1/7 with Paddy Power to lose their Premier League status.
At 2-0 down with 20 minutes to play at the City of Manchester Stadium, Fulham's relegation looked to be all but confirmed but a Diomansy Kamara goal followed by a Danny Murphy penalty-rebound strike pulled them level.
Then just seconds from time Kamara struck again to seal Fulham's second away victory in a row.
Manager Roy Hodgson said: "It was a splendid victory for us, one we so badly needed. It looked bleak at half-time, and we had a mountain to climb - we didn't deserve to be losing. But we did it."
Fulham remain in the bottom three and next face a home game against fellow relegation candidates Birmingham City, who still sit in the drop zone after letting a two-goal lead slip against Liverpool.
The Blues are still one point behind 17th placed Reading and are priced at 4/5 with Boylesports to be relegated.
