Fulham vs West Ham United
16:24

It is an immediate reaction from Lopetegui, as Paqueta takes Soucek's place in one of two changes.
Fulham vs West Ham United
15:56
With a look towards the second half, Lopetegui might want to consider bringing on one or two attack-minded players. The likes of Ings, Paqueta, Summerville and Soler could make a positive impact on the match for the away side, and help in making the difference. For Fulham, it is in essence more of what they were already doing in the opening 45. They look the more dangerous team, and have hardly been troubled defensively.
Fulham vs West Ham United
15:54
It has been largely Fulham in the opening half, who are deservedly in front through Jimenez, who converted Smith Rowe's cross to put the hosts in front.

15:24

Fulham vs West Ham United
15:22

The pair go into this weekend 12th and 13th, respectively, with one win each to their credit thus far. Fulham are coming off a 1-1 draw with promoted side Ipswich Town before the international break. The Cottagers did win their only home league game thus far, a 2-1 success over another promoted team, Leicester. For West Ham, they fell 3-1 at home to last season's champions Manchester City at home. Fittingly, the Irons' only league success this campaign came on the road - a 2-0 success at Crystal Palace, another London derby at that.
