Team News: Fulham vs Leeds United | OneFootball

The starting XIs from this afternoon’s Premier League encounter against Fulham have been confirmed ahead of the 3pm kick-off at Craven Cottage.

Daniel Farke has made five changes to the side that were held to a goalless draw last time out before the international break by Newcastle United.

An enforced alteration between the posts sees Karl Darlow replace Lucas Perri, behind a defence of Jayden Bogle, Joe Rodon, Pascal Struijk and Gabriel Gudmundsson.

Skipper Ethan Ampadu returns from injury in place of Ilia Gruev in the heart of the midfield, alongside Anton Stach and Sean Longstaff.

Daniel James makes way for Brenden Aaronson on the right flank, complimenting Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Noah Okafor who make their full league debuts for the Whites.

On the bench, Japanese international Ao Tanaka is also back after a spell on the sidelines as well as a return to the squad for Illan Meslier.

Starting XI: Darlow (GK), Bogle, Gudmundsson, Ampadu (C), Struijk, Rodon, Longstaff, Calvert-Lewin, Aaronson, Stach, Okafor.

Subs: Meslier (GK), James, Nmecha, Bijol, Harrison, Tanaka, Justin, Gnonto, Gruev.
