Preview: Fulham vs. Swansea City

Fulham host Swansea City at Craven Cottage on Saturday looking to bring their run of four successive defeats to an end.

The Cottagers appeared to have got their campaign back on track in the opening two games of October, but four losses in a row has heaped the pressure on manager Martin Jol.

Jol could be boosted by the return of defender Brede Hangeland as he looks for the win that would see them move out of the Premier League relegation zone.

Swansea haven't enjoyed the most profitable of spells themselves, with just one win coming in their last six matches.

A couple of draws in the league have kept them above the bottom three, but a defeat to Fulham on Saturday would see the London outfit overtake them in the Premier League table.

Striker Michu remains absent for the Swans, but they are able to call upon goalkeeper Michel Vorm, who returns after suspension.
