Fulham goalkeeper Marek Rodak is suspended for Saturday's Championship match against Hull City, so Marcus Bettinelli is set for a return.

Stefan Johansen and Harry Arter are both injury doubts for the hosts, who are one point off the play-off places.

Hull's Hungarian forward Norbert Balogh (calf) is unlikely to be fit in time, but City have no new injury concerns.

Northern Ireland striker Josh Magennis willl miss out as he serves the the second match of a four-game ban.

Match facts
  • Fulham and Hull last faced each other in the Championship in December 2017, sharing a 2-2 draw at the KC Stadium.
  • In all competitions, Hull have lost their last two away matches against Fulham since a 1-0 win in January 2016.
  • Including play-offs, Fulham have lost just one of their last 23 home Championship matches (W17 D5 L1).
  • Hull's Kamil Grosicki and Jarrod Bowen have combined to create 19 chances for one another in the Championship this season - five more than any other duo.
  • Aleksandar Mitrovic has scored 13 goals in his last 15 Championship appearances for Fulham at Craven Cottage, netting a hat-trick in his last game there against Luton.
  • Since the start of the 2017-18 season, Hull City's Jarrod Bowen has scored more Championship goals than any other player (44)

  • going to be a tough one but they’re **** at the back and we’re improving rapidly now.
  • Well do the soft southern dandies 2-1
 
Just to show how bollocksed this league is, Barnsley come back from 0-2 to draw with Bristol City. Anyone can beat anyone and hopefully tomorrow our confidence is high and we can eek out a result. We'll get chances on the counter for sure. Keep the impetus going into next week.
 
If we win this, then I'll start to believe we could genuinely believe we could be playoff contenders

Tough game this one, Carney is likely to score if he's playing, just keep him off his left foot anywhere near the goal boys.

It will be interesting to see what team Terry goes with, will Lopes and Toral play, if so then Stewart will miss out again probably?

I can't see City getting anything from this one, there again I said that against Forest, and how wrong I was.

Coupon nightmare City at the minute.
 
First rule of football coupon betting TTT.... NEVER have your team in selections... HEART/HEAD etc...


Tell me about it.

Stu Elliott’s late header cost me over £1600 a few seasons ago against DQPR in a big accumulator.

Great win but Left City alone ever since mate...
 
The world's first speed bump was installed in Fulham on Linver Road and Alderville Road in 1984.

The first amateur boxing match was held in Fulham in 1867. Marquess of Queensberry provided the winning cups and thus Queensberry Rules in boxing were introduced.

The standard distance for modern marathons — 26.2 miles was set in Fulham, to make sure the race finished directly in front of the Royal Box. No idea why they didn't just start closer.

It was were colour tv broadcasts first took place.

Edward Earle Bulwer-Lytton (Lord Lytton), the distinguished novelist, orator and statesman, wrote “The Last Days of Pompeii” at the original Cottage

In the graveyard of All Saints Church, Fulham stands a gravestone to Isabella Murr, the wife of a local schoolmaster in the early 1800s. The inscription is full of praise and she was clearly much loved in the area. It's hard to say if the same could be said of Mr Murr, as reference to him has been limited to the afterthought - 'He's gone too'.
