Dimitar Berbatov to start for Fulham against West Bromwich Albion

Berbatov for Fulham start

Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov will make his full debut for Fulham in their Premier League clash with West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.

Fellow new signing and Greek defender Giorgos Karagounis too could feature at Craven Cottage, Martin Jol revealed on Friday.

"Karagounis will be in the squad but Berbatov will start against West Brom," he said. "We will do an injury test on Bryan [Ruiz] ­on Saturday so he's 50/50 at the present.

"As for the rest of the squad, [Kieran] Richardson is out with a hip injury, and of course we know about Kerim Frei. [Ashkan] Dejagah was not fit when he joined so hopefully we will get him fit in the next couple of weeks.

"Philippe Senderos is doing well, he came back and trained with us on Friday, but he's not ready to join us yet. And [Mahamadou] Diarra has a problem with his knee."

Fulham have collected three points from three matches in the league so far.
