Fulham visits Elland Road today as they aim to strengthen their position for European qualification and secure a fourth straight league win against Leeds United.
Under Marco Silva, Fulham has climbed to ninth place after an impressive unbeaten streak in their last six matches across all competitions. The team is known for their late-game effectiveness, having earned six points this season from goals scored in the last ten minutes.
Fulham Team News
Marco Silva is facing key player absences due to the Africa Cup of Nations, with Alex Iwobi, Calvin Bassey, and Samuel Chukwueze unavailable as they participate in a playoff for third place. Furthermore, Rodrigo Muniz and Kenny Tete are sidelined due to injuries. Josh King is back in training but will undergo a late fitness test for a knee issue.
Harry Wilson, who has been in good form with 11 goal contributions this season, is expected to return to the lineup. Silva will likely revert to a 4-2-3-1 formation after trying a back three in the FA Cup. Joachim Andersen and Issa Diop will lead the defense, while Sander Berge and Tom Cairney will manage the midfield. Raul Jimenez is set to spearhead the attack, supported by Wilson, Emile Smith Rowe, and Kevin as Fulham looks to extend their unbeaten record against promoted teams to 12 matches.
