Predicted Fulham Lineup To Face Bolton In The EFL Championship
Manager Slavisa Jokanovic deserves a lot of credit for the job he is doing for Fulham at the moment. They are currently in 5th place and have cemented their position as a firm contender for the playoffs come the end of the season.
This has coincided with a winning run in the league that stretches back to the 23rd of December. Fulham will be hoping to keep that going this weekend, with a tough trip to Bolton awaiting them. They may still be without Sheyi Ojo but other than that, the Fulham squad is fighting fit.
Probable Fulham XI
Manager: Slavisa Jokanovic
Formation: 4-2-3-1
GK – Marcus Bettinelli
The Fulham goalkeeper will be looking to keep another clean sheet after shutting out Nottingham Forest in his last game.
RB – Ryan Fredericks
Ryan Fredericks will know that Cyrus Christie is real competition for him in defence but as long as he keeps playing like he is doing so at the moment, he should keep his place.
CB – Tim Ream
Part of a back four that picks itself, Tim Ream is in great form at the moment. He will want to win the physical battle against Bolton.
CB – Tom Kalas
The former Chelsea player is having a brilliant season and has been a part of everything that is good about the Fulham defence.
LB – Matt Targett
The on-loan Southampton defender has slotted in well in the Fulham side. He will be looking for an opportunity to get forward in this game.
CM – Kevin McDonald
The Fulham midfielder Kevin McDonald has begun to influence the play much more in recent weeks, and Jokanovic will be hoping he keeps having an impact.
CM – Oliver Norwood
The Northern Irish international is the grit of this very skilful team. His engine and work rate are second to none.
LW – Ryan Sessegnon
Since Jokanovic moved him to an advanced role, he has been a constant threat on the left-wing. Truly great things are expected of this kid.
CAM – Stefan Johansen
A great link-up player and fast-paced forward Stefan Johansen was the man of the match last time out. Will need to put in an equally good performance this weekend.
RW – Lucas Piazon
Lucas Piazon did what he does best last weekend, he got another goal. He will be hoping to continue his good run, and prove his worth to this team.
ST – Aleksandar Mitrovic
Signing Mitrovic was a huge coup for Fulham, and after impressing by coming off the bench, he should start this game ahead of Rui Fonte.
