Sports Mole previews the Premier League clash between Fulham and West Bromwich Albion at Craven Cottage on Saturday.

West Bromwich Albion travel to Craven Cottage on Saturday looking to continue their sparkling start to the Premier League season.

The Baggies have taken seven points from their first three games, including a 2-0 win over Everton before the international break.

Steven Reid (hamstring) and Romelu Lukaku (ankle) both face late fitness tests ahead of the game, while Zoltan Gera is struggling to shake off a knock. Goran Popov is in line to make his debut in defence.

Bryan Ruiz, Kerim Frei and Simon Davies are all due back for Martin Jol's men, who were defeated 3-0 by West Ham United in their last game.

Dimitar Berbatov is likely to make his full debut for the Cottagers, while new signing Giorgos Karagounis could also feature.

Current form:

Fulham: WLL
West Brom: WDW

Possible lineups:

Fulham: Schwarzer; Riether, Hughes, Hangeland, Riise; Duff, Sidwell, Diarra, Richardson; Berbatov, Petric

West Brom: Foster; McAuley, Popov, Olsson, Ridgewell; Yacob, Mulumbu; Fortune, Morrison, Dorrans; Long

Sports Mole says: 2-2
