FULHAM VS BOURNEMOUTH: PREVIEW

Fulham will be looking for their first win in six games as they host Bournemouth at Craven Cottage on Saturday afternoon.

The Cottagers have sinked down to 18th in the Premier League table following their poor run of form - which saw them lose 4-2 at Cardiff last weekend.

They host a Bournemouth side, who have started the season very strongly; sitting in sixth place, with their most recent game a goalless stalemate at home to Southampton.

TEAM NEWS:

Slaviska Jokanovic has struggled to settle with a starting line-up this season and that could be a factor to why he's the most under-pressure manager in the Premier League currently.

Calum Chambers and Tim Ream both had off-days in South Wales last Saturday, and it is expected the defensive pair will drop out of the side.

Alfie Mawson and Cyrus Christie are likely to replace the duo in Jokanovic's team.

Joe Bryan is still out with an achilles tendon problem - which means Ryan Sessegnon could be pushed back into defence.

Skipper Tom Cairney is still sidelined due to a foot injury for the Cottagers.

For the visitors, they have no fresh injury concerns; meaning Eddie Howe could field the same line-up that drew with the Saints last weekend.

MANAGER'S COMMENTS:

Fulham boss Jokanovic has insisted that his side will keep their attacking approach they've occupied this season, despite the team's poor defensive record.

Jokanovic's side have shipped 12 goals in just three games against Everton, Arsenal and Cardiff.

"If we don't attack we aren't going to score any goal in any game," Jokanovic said in his pre-match press conference.

"I don't understand the sense to be part of this business without trying to attack the opposite team.

"We must defend and we must attack. We must find more solidarity and defensive coordination and discipline without avoiding trying to be a danger in front of the opposition goal."
