Fulham hope to bounce back from defeats in their opening two fixtures as they host Burnley.

Team news

Fulham are still without Tim Ream and Floyd Ayite through injury but Denis Odoi is now back from suspension. Alfie Mawson (knee) is still not fully fit and is unlikely to make his debut.

Burnley's Robbie Brady (hamstring), Steven Defour (calf), Nick Pope (shoulder) and Anders Lindegaard (thigh) are still out, but Matej Vydra (fitness) is closer to a debut.

Did you know?

The west Londoners are looking for just their second win against Burnley in nine matches in all competitions (D2 L5).

 

Burnley are unbeaten in their last 10 Premier League matches against promoted opposition (W2 D8).

 

The Clarets will be looking for a first PL win at Craven Cottage. They lost on their only previous visit, 3-0 in February 2010.

 

Since the start of last season, Burnley have won 53 per cent of their PL points from away matches, with 29 out of 55. That is a higher share than any other side.
