Fulham and Sunderland will face each other in the Premier League game this weekend. The match between Marco Silva’s side and Regis Le Bris’s team will be held at Craven Cottage in London and is scheduled to kick off at 3pm UK time on Saturday.

Fulham

Fulham are an established club in the Premier League that aim to finish in and around mid-table. The Cottagers ended up 11th in the standings last season and will have been hoping to do the same this time around.

Marco Silva’s side, though, are not doing so well right now. Fulham are 15th in the Premier League table at the moment with 11 points from 11 matches, a point above the relegation zone.

Fulham will head into the Premier League game against Sunderland at Craven Cottage in London on Saturday on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Everton away from home in the league. It came after a 3-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in front of their fans in the league, which followed a victory over Wycombe Wanderers on the road in the Carabao Cup.

Bernd Leno will be in goal for the Cottagers and will have Kenny Tete, Joachim Andersen, Calvin Bassey and Ryan Sessegnon in front of him in defence.

Regis Le Bris’s side are as high as fourth in the Premier League table at the moment. Sunderland have picked up 18 points from 11 matches, a point behind third-placed Chelsea and seven points behind leaders Arsenal.
