Fulham will look to extend their 15-game unbeaten run in the EFL Championship when they face off against QPR at the Craven Cottage on Saturday.
The Cottagers have been on a fine run of form that has seen them move to 4th place in the league table and with less than 10 games left in the season, a playoff finish looks like a very strong possibility. And manager Slavisa Jokanovic will be hoping that his team carries the momentum from the 2-1 weekend win over Preston North End to this game against the Hoops.
Tomas Kalas is close to a return to the side after having participated in training towards the end of last week. Apart from one player, Jokanovic has a clean bill of health and no suspended players to worry about for Saturday’s encounter.
Here’s how the Cottagers might take the field against QPR.
Despite the return to fitness of David Button, Jokanovic is likely to continue with Marcus Bettinelli between the sticks on Saturday.
The 25-year old Englishman has been brilliant this term and has registered 9 assists from right-back. A definite starter against QPR.
The versatile Belgian defender will once again find a starting berth in the heart of the defence for the London outfit.
The 30-year-old American centre-half should partner up with Odoi at the back, for the Cottagers on Saturday.
The on-loan Southampton man has made 9 appearances so far since arriving in the winter window. All set to play his 10th game this weekend.
The 27-year old Scotland international is a permanent fixture in the middle of the park for Jokanovic’s side and will once again start on Saturday.
Alongside Cairney, it will be his fellow Scotsman Kevin McDonald who will take the pitch against QPR to make his 34th Championship appearance of the season.
Completing the midfield trio for the Cottagers against QPR should be 27-year-old Norwegian midfielder, Stefan Johansen. Has scored 6 and registered 5 assists and will be looking to boost his tally.
The on-loan Liverpool winger did not start the last game against Preston North End and could start on the right flank.
The Serbian international has been on blazing form since his temporary move to Fulham in January. Has netted 7 goals in his last 5 appearances for the club and is a definite starter on Saturday.
The teenage sensation has made the left-wing position his own, with 14 goals and 4 assists in all competitions this term. An undisputed starter.
