17'
Still a lot of sloppy passes and no real pattern to the game as yet.
16'
Good defending from Olsson under pressure from Berbatov. That should be a good battle today.
15'
Midfields cancelling one another out with ball retention proving tough at the moment.
14'
Ruiz evades Ridgewell and nearly nips through but West Brom defend in numbers to win it back.
13'
Parker really beginning to pull the strings in midfield proving he’s not only a great holding man. A good move ends with a hand ball from Kacaniklic.
12'
An intelligent ball from Parker but Riether can’t quite keep it in. Goal kick West Brom.

POSSESSION: Fulham 51% - 49% West Brom
10'
Fulham enjoying a spell inside the West Brom half, beginning to exert some pressure.
9'
More good work from Anichebe who robs Richardson of the ball. Fulham survive and win it back.
8'
Early cross from Riether down the right flank, West Brom clear. A fairly cagey opening.
7'
Kasami fouled by Yacob and Lee Probert thinks about a card before carrying on. Free kick only.
6'
Lovely turn and shot from Anichebe who looks hungry early on. Fulham smuggle it away.
5'
Kasami flattens Ridgewell who goes down and stays down for a while. He’s back up.
4'
Lovely ball from Parker to Kacaniklic but he skews his cross badly and it’s a goal kick.

Anichebe holds his head in his hands as he is flagged just offside. It was mighty close! Looked the wrong decision and he would have been through on goal.
2'
A good ball from Kasami, McAuley heads it back to Ruiz who strikes his shot wide. Bright start.
1'
A searching early cross from Anelka that Senderos misses before Fulham get the ball away and mount an attack of their own.

Referee Lee Probert blows the whistle to get us underway here. Early in the season but a big game for both sides here today with both feeling it is a game they can win. Fulham starting out with a 4-3-2-1 formation, West Brom a more conventional 4-4-2.
14:55
Five minutes to kick off. MATCH ODDS: Fulham 23/20, Draw 5/2, West Brom 13/5
14:50
Having got off to their best-ever start to a Premier League season last term (seven points from first four games), failure to win against Fulham will mean West Brom’s worst return from their opening four games (currently three points from first four games in 02/03, 04/05 and 11/12).
14:45
West Brom have been the most wayward team in front of goal; getting just 20% of their efforts on target.
