Fulham travel to the south coast to face Bournemouth on Friday night looking to bounce back immediately from last weekend’s defeat.
A disappointing 3-1 loss at Aston Villa brought their two-match winning streak to an abrupt end, and manager Marco Silva will be demanding a response from his side. The Cottagers face a daunting task to get back to winning ways. They have lost on their last three consecutive visits to the Vitality Stadium. In addition, a concerning habit of letting leads slip has seen them lose more games from winning positions than any other team in the last two seasons.
Fulham XI vs Bournemouth – Predicted lineup and team news
Fulham team news
Marco Silva’s biggest headache is in attack. With Rodrigo Muniz already out, the manager faces an anxious wait over the fitness of Raúl Jiménez, who has a knee issue. If Jiménez is unavailable, Adama Traoré is expected to be given the nod to lead the line. In midfield, Sander Berge and Sasa Lukic will form a double pivot. Lukic’s discipline will be under scrutiny, as he has committed more fouls (22) than any other player in the Premier League this season.
