Your Starting 11 v Aston Villa & Score Predictions

[Friendsoffulham]

With the International break over, it's business as usual, and back to Premier League action on Sunday against Aston Villa. 

This is another game we need 3 points from, so what do you think the starting 11 will be, and will it be a win, loss or draw for Fulham?

With Mitrovic's 5 goals in 3 games for Serbia, surely he has to start up top in place of Maja, and Bobby Decordova-Reid comes back into the side if he's shaken off his injury. 

Let us know your preferred 11 and score predictions below 049:gif



#FFC #FULHAMFC

[Arthur]

                            Areola

Tete         Andersen       Tosin           Aina

BDR            Lemina         Reed          Robinson

                     Maja        Lookman

The pace and athleticism of Robinson on the left and the stamina of BDR that enables him to get up and down the right flank would be key to turning 4-4-2 into 4-2-4 on the counter attack.

Same lineup from me. I like this thinking.

[Fulham 442]

Is BDR fit again and available for selection?

[We Are Premier League]

I haven't been in the "play Mitro" cult until today, after scoring all those goals for Serbia we have to let him start. If Reid is fit, I would take them on player for player with a 4-3-3. Tete and Aina at full back since their defensive strengths are needed against their wingers. I would also start RLC since he was resting during the international break.

     Cash         Konsa Mitro Mings      Targett
     Lookman                                        Reid
                     Luiz   RLC  McGinn
                   Lemina Barkley Reed           
     Traore                                         Grealish
       Aina   Toisin Watkins Andersen     Tete

Some really great ideas here and more inventive thinking than Parker has shown to date.

Three things are vital:
1. we play at least two proper forwards one of which should be Mitro from the start. Have Maja on the bench ready to come on from half time.
2. We do not play Cav or RLC even if they look fantastic in training, cos they ain't.
3. We need Bobby DR and Lookman on the pitch , and playing in their half of the pitch, for as much of the game as possible. We have a good back four and Reed as a CDM with Anguissa or Lemina. Defence is fine.

A win is possible, and likely if we do those three things.

[filham]

Mitro just has to start , the back four chooses itself , Lookman has to play and of course Areola is in goal but then it gets difficult.
                                                                  Areola
                                       Tete            Anderson        Tosin       Aina
                                                                 
                                                        Anguissa              Reed
                                                                         RLC
                                             Reid                    Mitro                Lookman

If we have not scored after an hour switch to:-
                                                              Aerola
                                    Tete         Anderson        Tosin       Aina
                                   
                                      Reid            Anguissa       Reed        Lookman
           
                                                     Maja               Mitro     

Tete must be instructed to get early crosses aimed at Mitro in the box at every opportunity.

Wow, if we do those three things we will win, I can't fathom why you are not a Premiership coach, let's hope Parker reads your comments.
🤣all in fun.

[Fulham 442]

Is BDR fit again and available for selection?

Just seen him in the training video.  Good news!

[Mullers OG]

Areola
Tete  Andersen. Tosin Aina

Lemina.  Reed.   Anguissa

Cavaleiro. Mitrovic.  Lookman

+1

[Nick Bateman]

I would play Mitrovic & Maja upfront with either Ruben Loftus-Cheek or Lookman/Lemina. RLC wins free kicks and is strong on the ball. Anguissa and Harrison Reed should play. Defence as others have stated or move Aina to right-back and play Joe Bryan instead of Tete. Bryan's crossing would suit Mitrovic. Areola has been superb in the sticks this far.

[LittleErn]

                             Aerola
   Tete         Anderson        Tosin       Aina
                             
Reid            Anguissa       Reed        Lookman
           
                       Maja               Mitro     

Looks good to me. sub in Lemina for Reid if he isn't fit enough for the full game or if we are 2 goals up!

[PaulJ123]

                             Aerola
   Tete         Anderson        Tosin       Aina
                             
Reid            Anguissa       Reed        Lookman
           
                       Maja               Mitro     

Looks good to me. sub in Lemina for Reid if he isn't fit enough for the full game or if we are 2 goals up!

Yep this. Maybe Lemina for Zambo to be a bit more solid.

[filham]

The team predicted in the Telegraph today is:-
                                                         Areola
                                     Aina        Andersen    Tosin   Robinson
                                            Reed          Lemina
                                   Cav.           RLC                Lookman
                                                  Maja
Grealish is shown starting for Villa but they say Reid is to be tested. No mention of Mitro.

That would be my starting 11 as well, maybe Reid instead of Maja believe it or not.

[SouthIslandWhite]

We just have to start Mitro, no?

                                                         Areola

The Telegraph have no more idea than you or me. Only Parker's knows his team.
