What They're Saying
Fulham manager Kit Symons (via the Guardian): "We were so young when I first took over and had so little experience, that I had to try and get the experienced players in and find a system that suited them. That certainly worked initially, and then we played fairly narrow at times and teams were finding out about that and exposed us a little bit in wide areas."
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe (via Sky Sports): "The performances have been decent of late certainly, so we haven't quite got the points tally I would like from those, but we're very much a work in progress I think."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Bryan Ruiz remains Fulham's best creative talent. In 22 league appearances, the 29-year-old has four goals and 36 chances created.
Fulham's Projected Lineup (4-4-2 Diamond): Bettinelli; Stafylidis, Bodurov, Richards, Hutchinson; Tunnicliffe, Parker, Christensen, Ruiz; McCormack, Woodrow
Bournemouth's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Boruc; Elphick, Daniels, Cook, Francis; Pugh, Surman, Ritchie, Arter; Wilson, Kermorgant
